Discussion Assignment
After our reading this week, it’s clear that plagiarism is a sticky ethical issue, ranging from accidental infractions to outright theft of intellectual property. Review the Code of Academic Integrity in the UoPeople Catalog (available on UoPeople’s website, https://www.uopeople.edu), and then write a reflection answering the following questions:
Did any of the information in the Catalog – such as the consequences – surprise you? Why or why not?

What strategies will you use to avoid plagiarism?
