Collaboration to prevent Plagiarism

Collaboration to prevent Plagiarism

For the second time around, SMU Libraries collaborated with the Student Council of Discipline (SCD) and the Centre for English Communication (CEC) on a design competition about preventing plagiarism. Led by the 16th Council of the SCD, this initiative advocates SMU’s CIRCLE value of Integrity where students could choose from one of the following modes of communication – video, poster and name tent.

Students researched using SMU Libraries’ award winning interactive online resource, Avoiding Plagiarism through the APA Citation. CEC helped to promote the competition to the Programme in Writing and Reasoning (PWR) students who addressed a similar topic as part of their problem-based learning.

This yielded 60 highly creative submissions from across the six schools with a majority from the School of Business. Below is the prize winners:
