ASSESSMENT 1 MARKING GUIDE document can be found on Moodie Academic honesty Cases of plagiarism; collusion and fraud are not tolerated. KOI expects students to submit their own original work. All students agree to a statement of authorship when submitting assessments online via Moodle, stating that the work submitted is their own original work. Handing in work created by someone else, whether copied from another student, written by someone else, or from any published or electronic source, is fraud, and falls under the general Plagiarism guidelines. This very serious case has led to many students losing their degrees after the fraud had been discovered! Further information can be found on the KOI website
