plagarism means using someone else's work without attribution
(if you don't know what attribution means, look it up in the dictionary)
- basically, when you "cut and paste" words off another site, and use it for the storefront project in TCS301, you MUST put quotes around the exact words, and say which URL it comes from
- you CANNOT say all these pictures come from Google
- that is NOT acceptable
- you have to do "............." (from www.nike.com)
- and say things like the pic above comes from www.addidas.com and the pic below comes from www.rebook.com

- if you DO NOT do this you will lose 5% marks for each infraction (keep in mind the assignment is out of 25%)

- so GO BACK and check your storefront and add in quotes if needed and say which www.etcetc.com it came from
- the reason I need this is to be able to tell what words you wrote !!!!, and what words you used from another site
- you are encouraged to write product descriptions in your own words and discouraged from simple cutting and pasting to much cause I want you to learn something
