Plagiarism will be dealt with harshly in this course and it is important that you understand what it is and how to avoid it. This is an excellent site that explains what plagiarism is and provides examples. Note: No writing assignments will be scored until the Plagiarism Test has been completed and certification placed in the Drop Box.

You MUST pass this test by the end of Lesson 2. When you pass the test you will receive a certificate indicating that you have passed the test. You may take this test as many times as necessary but you must pass the test.
