After our reading this week, it's clear that plagiarism is a sticky ethical issue, ranging from accidental infractions to outright theft of intellectual property. Review the Code of Academic Integrity in the UoPeople Catalog (available on UoPeople's website, https://www.uopeople.edu), and then write a reflection answering the following questions: 1. Did any of the information in the Catalog - such as the consequences - surprise you? Why or why not? 2. Given the potential consequences for plagiarizing, why do you think students engage in plagiarism? Be sure to explore at least two possible reasons why students might plagiarize. 3. What strategies will you use to avoid plagiarism? Discussion Requirements Your Discussion should be at least 250 words in length, but not more than 500 words. Use APA citations and references for the textbook and any other sources used; you should use at least 1 APA citation and reference, but you can use more if needed. Refer to the UoPeople APA Tutorials in the LRC for help with APA citations.
