1. I know that plagiarism means taking and using the ideas, writings, works or inventions of another
as if they were one’s own. I know that plagiarism not only includes verbatim copying, but also the
extensive use of another person’s ideas without proper acknowledgement (which includes the
proper use of quotation marks). I know that plagiarism covers the use of material found in textual
sources and from the Internet.
2. I acknowledge and understand that plagiarism is wrong.
3. I understand that my assignment must be accurately referenced.
4. This research proposal is my own work. I acknowledge that copying someone else’s research, or
part of it, is wrong, and that submitting identical work to others constitutes a form of plagiarism.
5. I have not allowed, nor will I in the future allow, anyone to copy my work with the intention of
passing it off as their own work.
6. I confirm that I have read and understood UNISA’s Policy for Copyright and Plagiarism -
