IB Academic Honesty
Policy
• 1.2. ‘An authentic piece of work is one that is
based on the candidate’s individual and original
ideas with the ideas and work of others fully
acknowledged’.
• 1.3. ‘In understanding the concept of intellectual
property candidates must at least be aware that
forms of intellectual and creative expression (for
example, works of literature, art or music) must
be respected and are normally protected by law.’
Academic honesty: guidance for schools. 2003. Geneva. International Baccalaureate Organization. p. 2
Malpractice
2.1 Malpractice includes:
• Plagiarism: this is defined as the representation of the ideas
or work of another person as the candidate’s own
• Collusion: this is defined as supporting malpractice by another
candidate, as in allowing one’s work to be copied or submitted
for assessment by another
• Duplication of work: this is defined as the presentation of the
same work for different assessment components and/or
diploma requirements
• Any other behaviour that gains an unfair advantage for a
candidate or that affects the results of another candidate
(for example, taking unauthorized material into an examination
room, misconduct during an examination, falsifying a CAS
record).

Plagiarism
According to the definition given in the 1997

What is referencing?
All ideas and work of other persons,
regardless of their source, must be
acknowledged
How to Reference
• You can give the source of your ideas in 3 ways:
– Quoting
– Summarizing
– Paraphrasing
• All three should contain an in-text reference including:
– the author's family name
– the date of publication
– the page number(s); e.g. Yule (3)
All three should also have a reference in the bibliography.
Quoting – in text
'Quoting' means using the exact same words as the
original author. There are 3 ways you can do this:
1. Quotation integrated with the text. This is for shorter
pieces of text; e.g. from one word up to two sentences.
Example:
At the beginning of "The Five Orange Pips," for example,
Watson notes that this adventure is one of the "many
which present strange and interesting features,“ (Doyle
100)
Quoting-Ellipsis
2. Quotation using ellipsis ( ... ) to omit certain
words, phrases or sentences from the original. You
can do this to miss out any unnecessary
information.
Example:
As if this weren't enough, John Openshaw, the man
who brings the case to Holmes, describes his problem as
"no ordinary one" (102), and adds that he doubts
"whether . . . you have ever listened to a more
mysterious and inexplicable chain of events“ (Doyle
103).
Quoting-Paragraphs
3. Quotation in an indented (narrow margins)
paragraph, without quotation marks. This is for
longer pieces of text, for example, for paragraphs.
Example:
Watson points out:
There is, however, one of these [cases] last which was
so remarkable in its details and so startling in its
results that I am tempted to give some account of it
in spite of the fact that there are points in
connection with it which never have been, and
probably never will be, entirely cleared up. (Doyle 3)
Quoting-Phrases
4. Phrases that you can use for quoting include, 'As
stated by...'(an author or authors), 'As stated
in...'(books, articles or papers), 'In the view of....'(an
author or authors).
Example:
According to Watson (3-4), “his face was pale and
his eyes heavy, like those of a man who is weighed
down with some great anxiety”.
Summarizing
Summarizing is writing in brief what the author says.
Summarizing is useful because:
• you can miss out unnecessary details, such as examples
• you can use less words than the author, and therefore
reduce the number of words in your writing
Summary Guidelines
• A summary should have about 50% or less words than
the words that you are summarizing.
• A summary should have both an in-text reference and a
reference in the bibliography.
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing means using the ideas of an author, but not using his or
her exact words. However, the meaning should be the same. You can
do this, for example, to say that 2 different authors have the same
opinion, and give the opinion as a paraphrase. This shows that you
can categorise ideas.
Example:
According to Yule (3-4) and Grundy (5), pragmatics is about how
people understand each other's meaning from their words.
Paraphrasing Phrases
• Other phrases besides 'According to...' that you can use to do this
include: 'As stated by...'(an author or authors), 'As stated
in...'(books, articles or papers), 'In the view of....(an author or
authors).
Authentic Sources – Initial
Appraisal
•
•
•
•
•
Author
Date of Publication
Edition or Revision
Publisher
Title of Journal/Website/Article/
Book, etc.
• Scholarly Journals
Authentic Sources•
‘academic, peer-reviewed, or refereed journals’
Have an abstract, a descriptive summary of the article contents, before
the main text of the article.
•
Cite their sources in the form of footnotes or bibliographies. These
bibliographies are generally lengthy and cite other scholarly writings.
•
Articles are written by a scholar in the field or by someone who has done
research in the field. The affiliations of the authors are listed, usually at
the bottom of the first page or at the end of the article-universities,
research institutions, think tanks, and the like.
•
The main purpose of a scholarly journal is to report on original research or
experimentation in order to make such information available to the rest of
the scholarly world.
•
Many scholarly journals are published by a specific professional
organization.

Two types of referencing
1. In-Text Referencing
• Citing of references within the text of an essay
Direct quotation
Ryken (128) states that ‘… work reaches back to the
very beginning of the world’.
Indirect quotation or paraphrase
Ryken (128) states that work is as old as creation.
In-text referencingfootnotes and endnotes
Footnotes and Endnotes are used to give credit to sources of any material
borrowed, summarized or paraphrased. They are intended to refer
readers to the exact pages of the works listed in the Works Cited,
References, or Bibliography section.
Footnotes: placed numerically at the foot of the very same page
where direct references are made
Endnotes: placed numerically at the end of the essay on a separate
page entitled Endnotes or Notes
Example:
2G. Wayne Miller, King of Hearts: The True Story of
the Maverick Who Pioneered Open Heart Surgery
(New York: Times, 2000) 245.
Two types of referencing
2. The Bibliography
• Bibliography – list of all works used in preparing
the task
The Bibliography is divided into 2 sections
• Works Cited (or Reference List/References)
&
• Works consulted
Works Cited
Works Cited (Reference List or
References)
- List of resources that have been
specifically referred to, quoted
and/or paraphrased in the text of the
assessment task.
Works Consulted
List of all resources that have been read and
or looked at as a part of the preparation
for the assessment task BUT there has
been no specific reference to any of the
listed resources in the text of the
assessment task.
Do’s and Don’t’s
Do’s
Do Not
Begin on a new page.
Number entries
Place references in ONE
ALPHABETICAL LIST by first words of
citations, regardless of where citations
come from.
List citations separately by categories
Start on the 6th line from the top (or 1"
down from the top of the paper), center,
and type one of the following titles:
Works Cited, References, or
Bibliography.
Double space after the title.
Double-space all lines, both within and
between entries.
Begin the first line of each entry flush
at the left margin. Keep typing until you
run out of room at the end of the line.
Indent 5 spaces for second and
subsequent lines of the same entry.
