I am on my 3rd year with Computer Science. I got a similar email just a few weeks ago. I had my in text citations but somehow forgot to add the reference list at the bottom of the post in the discussion. I was completely shocked and distraught by the plagiarism email. I felt just as you explained while reading the email. So now I am very careful about doublechecking all my work before submitting.
As a graduate and professional you need to conform to the plagiarism rules. I totally agree with the university to train the professionals of the future. Plagiarism destroys self confidence of the student and corrupt their soul.
Thanks for sharing your valuable experience, I'm going to embark on this incredible journey this year, I'm so excited and worried at the same time. I'm now feeling more informed and confident after watching your video.
Thanks and best regards
Thanks for the information, That's very helpful
Good luck with your studies 🔥
This is a great thing to share and very helpful. I would also feel shocked and upset if this happened to me. It's easy to make a simple mistake like this and we should all be vigilant to make sure we don't accidentally plagiarize. Thank you so much making these detailed and informative videos on the UoPeople experience. They're very helpful 👍
Yup, you should be really vigilant about plagiarism. I wish there were somebody telling me about it before.
@changkao_ they taught us in the foundational course. You didn't have that course?
I can see that the proper understanding will help us not to make mistake
Thank you for sharing your experience!
You're so inspiring! Keep on growing as much as you can.
Thank you so much for supporting the channel and me.
Hope you a blessing year 💜
Jesus, even learning a small part from
the internet and gettting a zero.
That's harsh.
Thanks for sharing the video, we learn st new here. Im still in shock.
Yup be careful!
Going to University is to gain knowledge and experience. The challenges like this make you better not worse. Smooth sea doesn’t make skillful sailors. Enjoy the process and fight for your rights rightfully.
Thanks for the tips your video was helpful 🎉❤
This is scaryyy for me.
It's hard not to make any other plagiarism mistake during 4 years.
That's crazy. But thanks for sharing this experience. I must take this serious now.
yup the opportunity is narrow now but I hope we all pass ;)
Thanks Alot sis it's a wonderful to see u today I want this year to join this university so please can help me more information about this university and the faculty computer science thanks u so much
Omgggggg
I find this video so helpful. Thanks for sharing.
I think UoPeople is just too strict.
I would be haunted in all dreams if I got a zero 😭😂😂
luckily it didn't haunt me but I did feel stressed a bit :)) just like your effort just wasted
Wow that's great and helpful to us
Thank you for sharing.
I miss Jessica!! I am returning to my studies after a few years hiatus due to personal commitments
I just found you and l have to say thank so much ❤
Thank you, I'm nervous because I start September 2023. Much needed info.😊
I'm also starting September but am doing associate degree
@@youngvibes3303I’m also starting and this was very informative.
I’m totally shaken!😨 Here, I’m starting programming fundamentals next week!
Thanks for your recommendation about turnitin, I will check it out soon.
Feel free to drop me email at changkao.contact@gmail.com ;)
Oh! That makes me scared to enroll in the UoPeople 😮
Same😥
I just got it as well. I felt drained it. I had the same issues as you had.
Plagiarism is always a serious thing at any university.
But zero is kinda harsh and failing grade in 3rd reported violation is just scary.
Did you try to beg for 5 or 6?
Thanks for sharing this experience. Im going to join the university soon. And this video is justttt super helpful.
I didn't think begging worked according to the university rule in the catalog. You also could see from the President's speech, a lot of heartbreaking emails sent to him from students he didn't accept 'cause that's the rule and people are treated fairly that way. I didn't attempt to do so when I knew there was a chance I made a mistake.
Be careful, man anyway!
Have you heard about "turnitin" ? You can upload all your assignment at a time. Your institution could partner with turnitin to check plagiarism and will be easier for students.
I wish I would see it before.
Sadly, I have already received plagiarism report
I always took zeros in school simply cause i didnt care and i still dont years later
Is 2023, I am newly undergraduate in Bsc Computer Science at UoPeople and got plagiarism report from my short course known as ALX Africa which is a software engineering training program
It's a bit scary but I like how they take this issue seriously. So far I have only used paperrater to check my work but I don't think this is enough. Basically, I just try to follow all rules about citation.
I really wish the university provided the subscription to something like Grammarly premium.
Sorry an out of topic question. Did you change your major? CS 1101 was my first course right after ENGL 0101. That's before I became a degree-seeking student. You seem to have taken other courses before CS 1101?
I think you started your study earlier than me maybe UoPeople already changed their program a bit.
Before CS 1101, I needed to study English 0101 and Online Education Strategies ( it’s all about citing and referencing) to become a degree seeking student. The funny thing is that I didn’t see those violation rules mentioned in OES course. They said it’s all written in UoPeople catalog but I guess not many people pay attention to all details in hundred pages of the catalog until they made mistake.
I think UoPeople just added Online Education Strategies lately after students made a lot of mistakes in plagiarism. We could see from our president speech, he repeated so many times about students begging for fixing their mistakes…
I think Unicheck could do the plagiarism checking well but you gotta pay for it, there’s limited features when you use it as a free account.
Now I try to write everything myself and cite whatever I get from the internet, I’m already scared. You’re also recommended to get no more than 40% from other sources in your paper, gotta be careful still!
@@changkao_ still similar I guess. After ENGL 0101, I took UNIV 1001 and CS 1101 at the same term.
And that's also what I sm doing. Being very careful with citation etc. But I sm still sticking with the free pagiarism checkers tho.
Which software do they use? Turn it in?
Upon the first report, you can remain a student as long as you refrain from plagiarism?
How high EQ and IQ you are. How so much effort you have taken. I swear that event will affect me whole year later. By the way, you did great work after being so shocked and scared.
My portfolio submission status says "Draft not submitted". But I did submit it on time. I am kinda struggling with Moodle
I did happen to me once but I contacted the professor and explained that I uploaded the draft and I remember that I submitted it and I didn't know why it showed up non-submited and I almost got non grading for the assignment. But the professor checked and found out that I uploaded things on time and he did give me the score for work. And I've learnt thing that I need to check it again and again the status of submision to make sure it's uploaded. I hope it's going well with you then.
One question because I am not sure if I got it right. If you would’ve marked the code which you got from a source and written the source then it wouldn’t have been a plagiarism?
Even you put the reference, the source you use better not get over 27% of that. I don’t remember the exact percentage. basically you can just use other source then reference it there but there’s some limit in still.
@@changkao_ thank you so much! My fear of plagiarism is really my major issue why I still didn’t have the guts to start studying. Even though this horror happened to you, the way you explain how to avoid it helps me a lot. ☺️🙏
I got a 3 in my learning journal😢😢
Hi, what does it mean that some courses are proctored? Does it mean that there is one proctored final exam or are there many proctored exams? Does a course that does not say “proctored” also have a proctored final exam? Thanks!
proctored courses are the ones which there will be proctor in the exam
Non-proctored ones are the ones you take the exam by yourself normally multiple choice question. There’s no one looking at you, just you
How about if we use chat gpt to understand the assignment and then submit it
Whatever you use, you need to modify it into your work and add the reference source in APA standard. Beside double check it with plagiarism tool to make sure your work is plagiarized or not. If it’s informed you are plagiarized, whatever you submit gets failure risk.
If you are unsure about the question, use chatgpt to put it into simpler terms for you to understand. That's all you are allowed to do with chatgpt. If you use chatgpt to create an answer, then you haven't actually done the work yourself. This is grounds for plagiarism/collusion, which is not allowed.
