How can you avoid plagairism in this class? In other classes?
In Introduction to Graphics and Design (this class), plagiarism can be avoided by creating original pieces and not taking the ideas of others. In other classes, the same idea applies: it is considered plagiarism if parts of an assignment--or anything else-- have been deliberately copied off of another individual's work.
