The Q Manual has some great advice about report writing and case study analysis. You have also seen a number of examples in the readings for the unit and the resources provided for each case study to model your report on. Please note that you must appropriately quote, cite and reference your sources to meet academic integrity standards. 2 CITING AND REFERENCING You must acknowledge the sources that you use in developing your report, so that it is clear what are your ideas and what are the ideas of others. The basic citing and referencing requirements are: ● all sources appropriately cited and referenced using the APA citation style (http://guides.lib.monash.edu/content.php?pid=346637&sid=2835402), ● any direct quotes from sources clearly identified as such with the use of quotation marks, a citation and a reference, and ● no patchwork paraphrasing. Please also note the following from the ‘Student Academic Integrity: Managing Plagiarism and Collusion Procedures’ of Monash, available at http://www.policy.monash.edu/policy-bank/academic/education/conduct/student-academic-integ rity-managing-plagiarism-collusion-procedures.html. Plagiarism occurs when students fail to acknowledge that the ideas of others are being used. Specifically, it occurs when: ● other people’s work and/or ideas are paraphrased and presented without a reference; ● other people’s work is copied either in whole or in part; ● other people’s designs, codes or images are presented as the student’s own work; ● phrases and passages are used verbatim without quotation marks and/or without a reference to the author or a web page; ● lecture notes are reproduced without due acknowledgement.
