UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA. COLLEGE OF EDUCATION
DEPARTMENT OF CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTIONAL STUDIES
Should be completed and submitted by ALL STUDENTS
The Department of Curriculum and Instructional Studies places specific emphasis on integrity
and ethical behaviour with regard to the preparation of all written work to be submitted for
academic evaluation. Although academic personnel will provide you with information regarding
reference techniques as well as ways to avoid plagiarism, you also have a responsibility to fulfil
in this regard. Should you at any time feel unsure about the requirements, you must consult the
lecturer concerned before you submit any written work.
You are guilty of plagiarism when you extract information from a book, article or web page
without acknowledging the source and pretend that it is your own work. In truth, you are stealing
someone else’s property. This doesn’t only apply to cases where you quote verbatim, but also
when you present someone else’s work in a somewhat amended format (paraphrase), or even
when you use someone else’s deliberation without the necessary acknowledgement. You are
not allowed to use another student’s previous work. You are furthermore not allowed to let
anyone copy or use your work with the intention of presenting it as his/her own.
Students who are guilty of plagiarism will forfeit all credit for the work concerned. In addition, the
matter can also be referred to the Disciplinary Committee for a ruling to be made. Plagiarism is
considered a serious violation of the University’s regulations and may lead to suspension from
the University. For the period that you are a student at the Department of Curriculum and
Instructional Studies, the under-mentioned declaration must accompany all written work to be
submitted. No written work will be accepted unless the declaration has been completed and
attached.

textbooks.
