Workshop offered on avoiding plagiarism

Students can avoid committing plagiarism by attending a workshop.

“Writing and Citing: Helping Students Use Source Material and Avoid Plagiarism”  will be offered on Friday, Oct. 19.

The workshop will be held in the Center for Teaching and Learning in the Interactive Learning Center, room 315 from 9 to 10:30 a.m.

Students can register at ctl.boisestate.edu/events/workshops.

The goal of the workshop is to help students use sources properly and teach them to avoid plagiarism in writing.

Additionally the workshop will address how assignments can be crafted in a way which can minimize the ability for a student to plagiarize as well as how “Safe Assign,” a Blackboard tool can be used to analyze written works for possible plagiarism to support student learning and class assignments.
