3. Academic integrity violations include the following: Plagiarism. Plagiarism is defined as use of intellectual material produced by another person without acknowledging its source. For example: • • • Wholesale copying of passages from works of others into an assignment, paper, or discussion board posting, or thesis or dissertation without acknowledgment Using the views, opinions, or insights of another without acknowledgment Paraphrasing another person’s characteristic or original phraseology, metaphor, or other literary device without acknowledgment Students’ Misuse of Their Own Scholarly Work • • • 4. a. • • • • • During their studies at Walden, students may find themselves writing for a second, third, or fourth time on the same topic; regardless, their writing is expected to reflect new approaches and insights into that topic to demonstrate their intellectual growth. Walden recognizes that there may be some overlap between the requirements, assignments, and inquiry for different courses and KAM demonstrations. In general, students may use only small portions of documents as background or foundational material for additional development in a subsequent assignment or research project. Students may not merely copy and paste substantial sections from one paper or KAM to another. Any use of prior work is at the discretion of the instructor: students must receive prior approval from their instructor, who may request a copy of the previous work. Fair use laws must be respected for published documents. When using their own scholarly work in subsequent research, students should cite themselves as a primary author and their previous coursework or KAM demonstrations as unpublished papers, as shown in The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. Cheating. Cheating is defined as fraud, deceit, or dishonesty in an academic assignment. It includes using or attempting to use materials, or assisting others in using materials, that are prohibited or inappropriate in the context of the academic assignment in question. For example • Copying or attempting to copy from others during an exam or on an assignment Communicating answers with another person during an exam Preprogramming a calculator to contain answers or other unauthorized information for exams Using unauthorized materials, prepared answers, written notes, or concealed information during an exam Allowing others to do an assignment or portion of an assignment, including the use of a commercial term paper service Submitting the same assignment for more than one course without the prior approval of all the instructors involved (See the Students’ Misuse of Their Own Scholarly Work section above for more information.) Collaborating on an exam or assignment with any other person without prior approval from the course instructor Taking an exam for another person or having someone take an exam for you b. Providing False Information. For example • • Furnishing false information in the context of an academic assignment Fabricating or altering information or data and presenting it as legitimate • • • Providing false or misleading information to an instructor or any other university staff member c. Copyright Violation. Walden recognizes and respects intellectual property rights. As part of its mission to maintain the highest standards for ethical conduct, the university requires its employees, instructors, students, and other university community members to use copyrighted materials in a lawful manner. No employee, instructor, student, nor other university community member may reproduce any copyrighted work in print, video, or electronic form in violation of the law. The easiest way to avoid violating the law is by receiving the express written permission of the copyright holder. Copyright laws in the United States may protect works even if they are not registered with the U.S. Copyright Office and even if they do not carry the copyright symbol. Copyrighted works include, but are not limited to, printed articles from publications, television and radio programs, videotapes, music performances, photographs, training materials, manuals, documentation, software programs, databases, World Wide Web pages, and CD-ROMs. In general, the laws that apply to printed materials are also applicable to visual and electronic media. Walden directs its employees, instructors, students, and other university community members to obtain appropriate permission from copyright holders directly, or from their licensing representative, when reproduction or duplication exceeds fair use. The fair use doctrine allows limited exemptions to copyright infringement liability when copyrighted works are used for purposes such as comment, criticism, teaching, scholarship, or research, particularly when the use of the work is limited in amount and scope and is for noncommercial purposes. To learn more about fair use, visit Copyright Law of the United States of America. d. Misrepresentation of Credentials. Statements made and documents supplied by Walden applicants and students must be complete and accurate. The university will not tolerate any misrepresentation by a student or applicant of past or current academic programs, degrees, or professional accomplishments. If unexplained discrepancies appear between statements or documents provided to Walden and information obtained otherwise, except in the case of misspellings and other such inadvertent errors, applicants may be rejected for admission and enrolled students may be dismissed. e. Theft or Damage of Property. For example • • • Sabotaging or stealing another person’s assignment, paper, project, electronic hardware, or software Obtaining improper access to, or electronically interfering with, the property of another person or the university via computer or other means Obtaining a copy of an assignment or exam prior to its approved release by the instructor f. Alteration of University Documents. For example • • • • Forging an instructor’s or university official’s signature on any document Submitting an altered transcript of grades to or from another institution or employer Putting your name on, or copying, another person’s paper or assignment Altering a previously graded exam or assignment for purposes of a grade appeal or for gaining points in a regarding process TYPES OF PLAGIARISM WEEK 1 IMPERSONATION Submit someone else’s work as your own PARROT Include cited material with minimal original writing GHOST SOURCES Include citations to nonexistent or misrepresented sources BULK COPY Copy/Paste large amounts of source material PLAGIARISM Takes on many forms PATCHWORK Combine properly cited material with copied material that is not cited THESAURUS Change a few words but retain the general structure of the source passage MIRROR Include a citation but use too many words from the original passage REUSE Borrow from your previous work without citations or permission © 2016 Laureate Education, Inc. 1 Title of the Paper in Full Goes Here Student Name Here Walden University 2 Abstract Abstracts are not required for all course papers.

Academic Integrity

Academic integrity involves being honest in the academic work that students are bound
to do in their respective educational institutions. Academic integrity is often devoid of the
academic violations such as fabrication, plagiarism, and cheating. Students are advised to avoid
engaging in such violations for both their benefit and the institution. The reason is that violations
often have ramifications for both the students and the academic institution. The students will get
to face serious consequences which include but are not limited to suspensions, penalties, and
they may not learn the necessary skills required in the workplace. The institution's reputation
may also be in dispute if the student gets seen as not yet ready for the workplace. The skills and
