Plagiarism is a very important topic for any class with writing assignments, including this one. You are expected to take the University of Oklahoma Academic Integrity: Avoiding Plagiarism" quizzes as many times as you need to until you receive a perfect score. Note there are five quizzes, and you must take all of them!

Here is where you will find more information you need to answer the quiz questions:

Student's Guide to Academic Integrity at OU
Plagiarism: What It Is and How to Recognize and Avoid It (Indiana University)
Plagiarism Tutorial (Duke University)

Please visit the Plagiarism Quiz site and when you have achieved a perfect score for all five short quizzes, declare your work by taking the gradebook declaration quiz for this assignment in the Declarations section of Desire2Learn. Please note that your gradebook declaration will also serve as a statement that you understand the rules regarding Academic Integrity and Plagiarism.

(Your Desire2Learn gradebook declaration is governed by the Honor Code).

Here is the text of the Desire2Learn Gradebook Declaration:

(3 points) I have taken the Plagiarism Quizzes until I received a 100% score on each.
