Hi all DBT students,

One of the requirements of academic study in Australia is to reference the sources of all the ideas and information you got from others. To do this well, is required. To do it badly hurts your grades. To do it carelessly or just miss it in just a couple of places can land you in trouble for plagiarism.

This is a longer reading, and that's why I've saved it for your first Research Week. But please do take time to read through this -- it is vital to your assessments in the DBT.

Citing, referencing, and avoiding plagiarism. It's an important read, so please take a little time and read it this week. (It's less reading than your normal set readings for a week.)

Take care, and the Lord be with you all as you study and learn to serve him better in your DBT studies.

Warmly in Jesus
