terrshee's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plagiarist?! This morning I have been accused of plagiarism. I would be amused if I were not so annoyed. My prof is threatening me with a zero for last week's assignment because I quoted two sources for a definition and didn't attribute them. Huh? The web addresses are there and the source is at the bottom, just like always. Perhaps because I left off quotes? I should think there is a distinct difference between misformatting and misappropriating. But apparently not. A tempest in a digital teapot, but still it needles my integrity and that's one of the places where I think I'm the least vulnerable, at least academically. ;-) Anyway, I've sent a request they she and the T/A rethink the grade. 6:55 a.m. - 2006-03-04 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- past tense - always tense - future tense |
