• Please make sure that the test questions are included in your submission. For
  example, use the test question as a header for your answer.
• Please respond to each question in complete sentences.
• Be sure that you draw directly from course content.
• You can refer to course materials in order to complete the test.
• Be sure that you make it clear that you have reviewed and understand the course content.
  For example, refer to readings, lectures, activities, etc. However, use direct quotes
  sparingly.
• Do not make any adjustments to your test in an effort to stop Turn It In from identifying
  the content. If this happens, it will delay my marking and therefore delay the entire class
  from receiving their test marks.
• You should not directly quote the slides or the internet.
• You must complete the test independently and the entire submission should be completed
  by you.
• You cannot use content that another student has submitted or plans to submit.
• Switching a few words around in a sentence that is from the internet or another classmate
  is plagiarism.
• Using any sort of artificial intelligence program to answer the questions is plagiarism.
• Do not repeat the same information in both answers.
