Academic Honesty Pledge
I affirm that all work submitted for this course, as well as for any other courses, will be entirely my own. I pledge to act as the sole author of my work, ensuring that all content, including words, sentences, and paragraphs, is my original creation unless explicitly cited. Whenever necessary, I will use proper quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing techniques to credit the work of others appropriately.
I understand that using any portion of a peer’s discussion post without proper citation constitutes plagiarism. Additionally, I acknowledge that duplicating a peer’s discussion post and making minor modifications to it is also a form of plagiarism. In maintaining academic honesty, I commit to notifying my instructor promptly if I observe another learner misrepresenting my work or the work of others. I recognize that upholding academic integrity is essential for the value of the Capella degree.
When quoting directly, I will use quotation marks, provide relevant context, and follow APA guidelines for citations. This includes both in-text citations with page numbers and a complete reference list. For paraphrasing or summarizing external sources, I will ensure that citations are correctly included in the text and in the reference section. I will use distinct language and restructure the sentences to avoid directly copying the source.
Capella 4000 Assessment 1 Pledge of Academic Honesty
To maintain academic honesty, I commit to reviewing key resources such as “Academic Honesty & APA Style and Formatting,” University Policy 3.01.01: Academic Integrity and Honesty [PDF], “Maintaining Academic Honesty,” and “Avoiding Plagiarism.” I understand that failure to adhere to these principles constitutes a severe breach of academic integrity as outlined in Capella University’s policies.
If an instructor identifies an act of academic dishonesty, I acknowledge that the following steps will be taken:
- Direct communication regarding the alleged violation.
- An opportunity to respond and provide evidence to refute the claim.
- Potential sanctions, including receiving zero points for the unit or a failing grade.
- Official reporting of the violation to the university.
Should I have any questions or need clarification about this pledge, I will seek guidance from my instructor. By entering my full name below, I confirm my understanding and commitment to these principles as outlined by Capella University’s academic policies.
