Ethics and Plagiarism

Credibility is very important! Be honest.


Be thoroughly prepared. Always double check!
Avoid abusive language and name calling.
Global plagiarism - stealing the entire speech
Patchwork plagiarism - pilfer content from two or three or more sources and pass those
as our own
Incremental plagiarism- failing to give credit for particular parts of our speech
