Academic Honesty
Credit Where Credit Is Due
All academic research is built upon verifiable
evidence. Your research paper is built upon the
work of other scholars.
Properly citing your resources acknowledges that
your opinion is based upon verifiable research
conducted by those who are experts in their field.
In college you must give credit to the research of
those who have written the articles or books you
use.
Remember that writing books and research
articles is hard work. When you use information
from someone’s research you must acknowledge
your debt to their work.
What is Academic Dishonesty?
Under the heading Biblical
Standards of Conduct the
Eastern University Student
Handbook clearly defines
what constitutes academic
dishonesty and it’s
consequences.
The following definitions and
disciplinary information are
taken from the 2015-2016
Student Handbook
Plagiarism
Plagiarism is defined as presenting words,
pictures, ideas, or artwork that are not your
own as if they were your own in spoken,
written or visual form.
In Written Work
In written work, three or more words
taken directly from another author
must be enclosed in quotation marks
and footnoted.
• The source of distinctive ideas
must also be acknowledged in a
footnote.
• The words or ideas of another are
not made your own work simply
by paraphrasing.
• A paraphrase, even if
acknowledged in a footnote, is
unacceptable unless specifically
permitted by the instructor.
Submitted Work
Submitting a paper written by another
student or another person as if it were your
own is academic dishonesty.
Submitting a paper written by you for
another course or occasion without the
explicit knowledge and consent of the
instructor is academic dishonesty.
Fabrication
Fabricating evidence or
statistics that supposedly
represents your original
research is academic
dishonesty.
Cheating
Cheating of any sort on tests, papers,
projects, reports, and so forth is
academic dishonesty.
Each faculty member is required to
send a record, together with all
evidence of all suspected cases of
academic dishonesty, to the Academic
Dean.
Academic Penalties
Depending on the circumstances the faculty
member may impose the following
penalties.
• Assign a grade of F or zero on the
paper, project or examination but
allow re-submission, resulting in a
maximum grade of C.
• Assign a grade of F or zero on the
paper, project or examination
without the opportunity for re-
submission.
• Assign a grade of F in the course.
Academic Dean
In all cases the instructor will
forward in writing evidence of the
academic dishonesty and the
academic penalty to the academic
dean of the program who will in all
cases forward all materials to the
Dean of Students for follow-up
and record keeping.
You can read the details in the
Eastern University Student
Handbook 2015 -16.
Academic dishonesty is a serious
matter.
Avoiding Plagiarism
As a general rule to avoid plagiarism think
of this old adage, ”When in doubt cite.”
Properly citing your resources
acknowledges that your opinion is based
upon verifiable research conducted by
those who are experts in their field.
Citing something doesn’t undermine your
opinion.
Citations are made to demonstrate your
research and support your opinion.
Do Research
Searching for information is easy.
Doing research is more challenging.
Research requires you to use the
information you have found and
formulate your own opinion.
Don’t confuse searching for
information with the research
process. Your paper should contain
your ideas bolstered by the
information that you have found.
Stay Organized
The best way to avoid plagiarism is
to stay organized and keep track
of your research. Keep your
personal notes separate from the
works you cite.
It’s easy to confuse your words
with the words of the people who
wrote the books and articles that
you use.
Don’t let a simple mistake cost
you a good grade.
Your Words are Important
Remember, when you write a paper, your
professor wants to know what you have
to say about a topic.
Your opinion matters. Your opinion must
be in your own words backed by your
research.
Your professor knows that you are a
student. You are learning to do academic
research. The best way for you to learn is
by using your own words and thoughts
about your research.
Making the Grade
You may feel pressure to get the best
grades.
The best way to do this is by doing your
own research and writing.
You are learning a new set of skills that
you will need for the rest of your life.
The Library and the campus Writing
Center are available to help you.
We all want you to make the grade.
Don’t Follow the Crowd
Not everyone is plagiarizing. Despite
what some people say.
Even so, you want to stand out from the
crowd. Do your own work.
It is not worth the risk of academic
discipline and the embarrassment to
you and others.
Writing a research paper is an
important part of your college life.
Plagiarism leads to failure and
disciplinary action.
Common Knowledge
You might think that “everyone
knows that it’s common knowledge”
and you fail to cite your information.
Remember that academic research is
built upon verifiable evidence. Your
research paper is built upon the work
of scholars. You express your opinion
based upon the evidence you
present.
Assume nothing when making your
opinion known. Back all your work
with verifiable evidence.
Don’t Be Confused
Don’t turn in a paper that only repeats the
words of others.
You should analyze and discuss the things
you have learned and then present your
opinion.
In the end your professor wants your
opinion in your words, based upon your
research.
Need Help?
There is help for you in your college library.
Eastern University students can access the
Citation Guides site at
http://libguides.eastern.edu/citationguides .
Learn about the tools you need to cite your
resources properly.
The Writing Honestly guide site can help you
avoid plagiarism,
http://libguides.eastern.edu/plagiarism .
Tools to Assist You
Eastern University students also have
access citation management tools. They
can help you stay organized.
There is a website dedicated to
instructing you how to use RefWorks.
This can be found at
http://libguides.eastern.edu/refworks
The librarians are there to help you.
Stop by the reference desk, call 610-
341-1777 or email
reference1777@eastern.edu.

Academic Honesty

  • 2. Credit Where Credit Is Due All academic research is built upon verifiable evidence. Your research paper is built upon the work of other scholars. Properly citing your resources acknowledges that your opinion is based upon verifiable research conducted by those who are experts in their field. In college you must give credit to the research of those who have written the articles or books you use. Remember that writing books and research articles is hard work. When you use information from someone’s research you must acknowledge your debt to their work.
  • 3. What is Academic Dishonesty? Under the heading Biblical Standards of Conduct the Eastern University Student Handbook clearly defines what constitutes academic dishonesty and it’s consequences. The following definitions and disciplinary information are taken from the 2015-2016 Student Handbook
  • 4. Plagiarism Plagiarism is defined as presenting words, pictures, ideas, or artwork that are not your own as if they were your own in spoken, written or visual form.
  • 5. In Written Work In written work, three or more words taken directly from another author must be enclosed in quotation marks and footnoted. • The source of distinctive ideas must also be acknowledged in a footnote. • The words or ideas of another are not made your own work simply by paraphrasing. • A paraphrase, even if acknowledged in a footnote, is unacceptable unless specifically permitted by the instructor.
  • 6. Submitted Work Submitting a paper written by another student or another person as if it were your own is academic dishonesty. Submitting a paper written by you for another course or occasion without the explicit knowledge and consent of the instructor is academic dishonesty.
  • 7. Fabrication Fabricating evidence or statistics that supposedly represents your original research is academic dishonesty.
  • 8. Cheating Cheating of any sort on tests, papers, projects, reports, and so forth is academic dishonesty. Each faculty member is required to send a record, together with all evidence of all suspected cases of academic dishonesty, to the Academic Dean.
  • 9. Academic Penalties Depending on the circumstances the faculty member may impose the following penalties. • Assign a grade of F or zero on the paper, project or examination but allow re-submission, resulting in a maximum grade of C. • Assign a grade of F or zero on the paper, project or examination without the opportunity for re- submission. • Assign a grade of F in the course.
  • 10. Academic Dean In all cases the instructor will forward in writing evidence of the academic dishonesty and the academic penalty to the academic dean of the program who will in all cases forward all materials to the Dean of Students for follow-up and record keeping. You can read the details in the Eastern University Student Handbook 2015 -16. Academic dishonesty is a serious matter.
  • 11. Avoiding Plagiarism As a general rule to avoid plagiarism think of this old adage, ”When in doubt cite.” Properly citing your resources acknowledges that your opinion is based upon verifiable research conducted by those who are experts in their field. Citing something doesn’t undermine your opinion. Citations are made to demonstrate your research and support your opinion.
  • 12. Do Research Searching for information is easy. Doing research is more challenging. Research requires you to use the information you have found and formulate your own opinion. Don’t confuse searching for information with the research process. Your paper should contain your ideas bolstered by the information that you have found.
  • 13. Stay Organized The best way to avoid plagiarism is to stay organized and keep track of your research. Keep your personal notes separate from the works you cite. It’s easy to confuse your words with the words of the people who wrote the books and articles that you use. Don’t let a simple mistake cost you a good grade.
  • 14. Your Words are Important Remember, when you write a paper, your professor wants to know what you have to say about a topic. Your opinion matters. Your opinion must be in your own words backed by your research. Your professor knows that you are a student. You are learning to do academic research. The best way for you to learn is by using your own words and thoughts about your research.
  • 15. Making the Grade You may feel pressure to get the best grades. The best way to do this is by doing your own research and writing. You are learning a new set of skills that you will need for the rest of your life. The Library and the campus Writing Center are available to help you. We all want you to make the grade.
  • 16. Don’t Follow the Crowd Not everyone is plagiarizing. Despite what some people say. Even so, you want to stand out from the crowd. Do your own work. It is not worth the risk of academic discipline and the embarrassment to you and others. Writing a research paper is an important part of your college life. Plagiarism leads to failure and disciplinary action.
  • 17. Common Knowledge You might think that “everyone knows that it’s common knowledge” and you fail to cite your information. Remember that academic research is built upon verifiable evidence. Your research paper is built upon the work of scholars. You express your opinion based upon the evidence you present. Assume nothing when making your opinion known. Back all your work with verifiable evidence.
  • 18. Don’t Be Confused Don’t turn in a paper that only repeats the words of others. You should analyze and discuss the things you have learned and then present your opinion. In the end your professor wants your opinion in your words, based upon your research.
  • 19. Need Help? There is help for you in your college library. Eastern University students can access the Citation Guides site at http://libguides.eastern.edu/citationguides . Learn about the tools you need to cite your resources properly. The Writing Honestly guide site can help you avoid plagiarism, http://libguides.eastern.edu/plagiarism .
  • 20. Tools to Assist You Eastern University students also have access citation management tools. They can help you stay organized. There is a website dedicated to instructing you how to use RefWorks. This can be found at http://libguides.eastern.edu/refworks
  • 21. The librarians are there to help you. Stop by the reference desk, call 610- 341-1777 or email reference1777@eastern.edu. Remember
