Notes from our open discussion
nDo
students understand intellectual theft?
nAll
papers (1st year and beyond) should be based on “real research.” We should avoid lumping this complex
experience into a single capstone research paper
nNeed
to repeat these lessons; not just in First Year Studies classes.
nStandardize
the expectations for students throughout their undergraduate life
nAssign
work based on print-only materials (journal back issues that are not online)
nNeed
definitions of common knowledge and what can be referenced without attribution
