Your work for this class must be your own work.
As a student at UC Berkeley, you are responsible for familiarizing yourself with the UC Berkeley Code of Conduct, which includes the university’s policy on plagiarism:
“Plagiarism is defined as the use of intellectual material produced by another person without acknowledging its source, for example:
– Copying from works of others without acknowledgment (this includes the use of AI/chatbots/any other technology to generate papers)
– Use of the views, opinions, or insights of another without acknowledgment
– Paraphrasing of another person’s characteristic or original phraseology, metaphor or other literary device without acknowledgment”
– Copying from works of others without acknowledgment (this includes the use of AI/chatbots/any other technology to generate papers)
– Use of the views, opinions, or insights of another without acknowledgment
– Paraphrasing of another person’s characteristic or original phraseology, metaphor or other literary device without acknowledgment”
When in doubt about citing sources, ask (in office hours or by email) for advice. If you need more time on an assignment, it is always better to ask for an extension (or even to turn in work late) than to plagiarize. Your ideas and arguments are valuable!
