Presenting the words, images, ideas, sounds, or creative expressions of others as your own. What is Plagiarism?
“A study of almost 4,500 students at 25 schools suggests cheating is . . . a significant problem in high school. 74% of the respondents admitted to one or more instances of serious test cheating and 72% admitted to serious cheating on written assignments. Over half of the students admitted they have engaged in some level of plagiarism on written assignments using the Internet.” Do Students Plagiarize?

Education is context specific and context-dependent. Context refers to the settings or surroundings in which education takes place. A student teacher is faced with the exciting but challenging task of assimilating a variety of contexts very rapidly when embarking upon teaching practice, whether during a course of initial teacher pre-service education or as a newly qualified teacher entering a first appointment in a school. These contexts vary from the very broad and general macro-contexts at a societal level to the very specific micro-contexts of a particular school, class and lesson. The prospect can be daunting, as we see in some student teachers’ concern for short-term survival in a new classroom. The thrust of this book is to support students in their initial teaching experiences – the micro-contexts of everyday life in classrooms. 3 Practice with Parenthetical Citations
