Avoiding Plagirisim
It is important that a student understands that plagiarism is a form of cheating. If a student pretend works that is their own, and it is not, they are essentially claiming the effort of someone else and this is unacceptable
Plagiarism is:
to steal and pass off the ideas or words of another as your own.
Sources can be defined as: diagrams/ paragraphs/pictures that have been copied from the internet, books or magazines and or copying a friend’s work.
To avoid plagiarism, exemplar referencing has been provided below:
1. Books/Magazines – author, date of publication. J.A Managan (2005) Sports in Australasian Society p1-3
For example - ‘In recent times, sport has become an ever larger business, both for those who do it and those who study it’ p1
Using a direct quote – Quote should be in ‘ …………………..’ together with a page number
2. Pictures sourced from the Internet – copy the http web address
For example: http://www.google. co.uk/images
3. Internet – Websites.
In the main text of a piece of work, a website should be reference by stating the name of the website, identifying is as an online resource and stating the date that the refrence was taken. For example:

‘McGwire was not the first—or the last—high profile athlete to take so-called performance-enhancing drugs. In 1998 alone several significant drug scandals shook the sports world. Irish swimmer Michelle de Bruin, winner of three gold medals in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, was banned from swimming competitions after submitting a suspicious urine sample to drug testers. American shotputter Randy Barnes, an Olympic gold medalist, was banned for life from competition for using the same supplement that McGwire used’
