You are responsible for knowing what plagiarism is (see this link for more: https://www.onlinecolleges.net/for-students/avoid-plagiarism/). Note: plagiarism includes the use of AI, such as ChatGPT and others, to generate original content. Cheating and/or plagiarizing on an assignment denies you the opportunity to learn. It also puts you in jeopardy since any student suspected of cheating or plagiarizing on a quiz, exam, or assignment will be reported to the Office of Student Integrity, which will investigate the incident and identify the appropriate penalty for violations.
