Submitting All assessments must be submitted through the Moodle site. No email submissions
will be accepted. All assessments submitted electronically through Moodle must be
through the Student Portal http:
my.cqu.edu.au • Failure to submit electronically will
e taken as a failure to submit and therefore a zero (0) score will apply to the

Plagiarism Copy detection software (TurnitIn) is used in this course and work found in
contravention of the copying and plagiarism rules will be investigated. Penalties
apply in the case of proven instances of copying, plagiarism and academic
dishonesty. Please check the following links to know more about TurnitIn:
http:
turnitin.com/en_us/training/student-training/viewing-originality-reports
http:
turnitin.com/en_us/training/student-training/about-originalitycheck
TurnitIn is only a tool and judgement needs to be used when you view your
Originality Report. TurnitIn does not make a judgement as to what is referenced
properly, it highlights the non-original material in a piece of work. You should use
the similarity score as a guide only and must then check the originality report to
determine whether or not changes need to be made to the assessment.
