Our Stance Against Plagiarism: More Information
All Coursework.Info members can download our free guide to good academic practice, "Avoid Plagiarism Like The Plague", from their Member Home page.
We commissioned a UK teacher to write this guide, and it was edited by the UK Government-funded JISC Plagiarism Advisory Service. It has a foreword by Boris Johnson - the Shadow Higher Education Minister.
