semester and plan around due dates Start early, allowing at least five weeks to complete all stages of an assignment Break tasks down into manageable chunks of time Use daily, weekly and monthly planners to help you Seek help early if you feel that you are slipping behind for any reason The university support services are there to assist you Stress can cause students to make bad decisions, like taking shortcuts or even cheating Identify how you manage stress and anxiety and then use these approaches during stressful periods For example, talk things over with a friend, play sport or go for a walk, Remember If you feel overwhelmed, seek help Leaving things to the last minute and not allowing sufficient time for your tasks puts you at risk This useful Monash Library blog can help you work on your time management skills Slide Video transcripts: Narrator (Ming Hui) Analysing the task The first step is to analyse the task Break down each assignment task to identify the instructions, the scope and the essential concepts It’s also helpful to read the Marking Guide carefully The Library’s Research and Learning Online website is a useful resource for developing task analysis skills Brainstorming The second step is to brainstorm Brainstorming helps you generate ideas and clarify what you already know www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 30 At this point, you may also some background reading, revision, or general searching This gives you direction, especially when it comes to searching for and collecting information Visit the Library’s brainstorming and mind mapping page for information about mind mapping techniques and activities Collecting resources The third step is to search for and collect the necessary resources The Library Search tool is an excellent place to begin your search for materials This is also where you can connect to the databases to access the best academic and professional sources for your assignment Reading The fourth step is to read Allow plenty of time to read the material for your assignments and take notes Remember that most people have to read several times to unpack deeper meaning As you read, you may discover that you need to dive back into the search process You may even want to retake the earlier steps of this process before you start to write Synthesising The fifth step is to synthesise Once you’ve gathered the information you need, and taken notes, you can bring the various sources and ideas together How you this will depend on your assignment Learning how to incorporate and summarise evidence is a big part of practising academic integrity For help with synthesising, explore the Library’s Research and Learning Online site Or find out whether your faculty has a writing guide such as the Q Manual for Business and Economics students Argument The sixth step is to form an argument Once you’ve synthesised the necessary information, your own position will be clearer and you will be ready to structure your outline This often involves articulating an argument, but equally it might be an explanation, a report, a critical review, or another type of writing You may also find that you are now more able to analyse and evaluate information Drafting www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 31 The seventh step is to write the first draft Write each section of the text according to your plan, integrating information to suit your purpose This involves writing well-linked paragraphs and paying careful attention to acknowledge all your sources Allow enough time and stick to your plan If you would like feedback on your draft, attend a drop-in session at the library Editing/Proofreading The final step is to proofread and edit Before submitting your final draft, you need to edit your writing and then proofread it Editing means reading the text carefully to check for consistency, flow, organisation and expression Then you must proofread, looking for problems like omissions, typing errors and spelling mistakes Finally, it is important to check that you have followed all the rules for your particular referencing style Slide 5b Video transcript: Narrators (Donna and Carmel) Donna: Hi The strategy we are going to focus on is reading effectiveness Carmel: Donna, how is reading connected with academic integrity? Donna: You have so much to read at Uni Reading smarter saves you time and enables you to connect more effectively with the material Reading critically will also help you analyse and evaluate information, and then integrate it into your own work Let’s take a look at an academic article together and practise some different reading skills Carmel: OK Great Donna: The academic article we are going to look at is about pets Let’s start with some simple skimming and scanning practice Slide 5g Video transcript: Narrator (Donna and Carmel) www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 32 Donna: Now, let’s look at how the structure of a text can help our reading Let’s look at some of the important cues within an introduction Click pause at any moment to read as we go along In this introduction, the writers aim to: Engage you as a reader [Description of scene in video] Video shows a portion of the article’s Introduction on page 2, with text highlighted as below (highlighted areas are shown here in bold) ‘Pets play an important role in the lives of many people throughout the world, and there is a growing body of research indicating a positive relationship between pet ownership and human health [1–5] With more than 60% of households in the U.S and Australia owning one or more pets [6,7], the benefits to individuals of human-animal interactions (HAI) to health have been widely explored Findings have revealed a number of therapeutic, physiological, psychological and psychosocial benefits to pet owners [8] including decreased blood pressure [9,10], reduced risk of heart attacks [11], improved survival rates [9,12,13], increased physical activity [14], increased sensory stimulation, emotional support and sense of physical and psychological wellbeing [15], as well as psychological resilience at times of adversity [16,17] ‘In the literature more broadly, there is now compelling empirical evidence for the importance of social relationships and social support for both physical and mental health and wellbeing Indeed, a meta-analysis of 148 studies placed the influence of social relationships on mortality risk on a par with wellestablished risk factors such as smoking and alcohol consumption [5], concluding that people had a 50 percent higher survival rate if they belonged to a wider social group Conversely, social isolation and loneliness have been identified as risk factors for poor health [18] ‘How then can socially supportive networks be enhanced in a modern fastpaced world that has been observed by some sociologists to precipitate disconnectedness from the people amongst whom we live [19]?

Donna: Yes As you begin to read, draw on what you know about the structure of the text to help your reading Slide 5h Video transcript: Narrator (Donna and Carmel) www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 36 Carmel: What about reading critically? How does that help with academic integrity? Donna: Reading critically means closely examining a number of features, for example: • • • • the evidence and arguments the writers use influencing factors such as who employs the writers limitations in the study design or focus, and interpretations the writers make about their findings or the findings of others You then have to decide to what extent you accept the writer’s arguments, opinions and conclusions Reading critically helps you avoid breaches of academic integrity because you are able to make clearer judgements and are more able to engage authentically with the ideas and knowledge By reading critically, you also have more capacity to analyse and evaluate Let’s look at an example from our article Click pause to read the following excerpt from the Discussions section of the article Then, compare the underlined text with the critical comment written below [Description of scene in video] Excerpt: ‘Pet culture’ differences may also have a bearing on some findings, so any international research would need to include consideration of the sociocultural context of each study site In the U.S for example, dedicated dog runs within parks are more common than in Australia, and may foster greater social interaction between dog walkers than a regular park There are also differences between countries and even between cities within the same country in relation to the permissibility of pets in various settings such as cafes, apartments and flats, and on public transit The opportunity to meet or get to know people or forge social support networks through pets will in part be influenced by both the contextual laws and social norms relating to the presence of pets in such settings.’ Critical comment: In evaluating future research directions, the authors note that local ‘pet culture’ differences between the US and Australian sites influences findings, and warrant further investigation (Wood et al., 2015) While their recommendation to compare socio-cultural factors across sites seems appropriate, they appear to have mistakenly generalised Perth conditions as nationally representative Just as in the three US sites, ‘leash free’ parks and designated dog play zones are widely available in other Australian cities [end of description of scene] Donna: Next, please answer the question www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 37 [pop up quiz question in video] Question: What aspect of the text does this comment relate to? Answer options: a The generalisability of the findings b The suitability of the sites c The ethical approach of the study For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A [end of quiz question] Donna: If you would like to further develop your reading skills check out this helpful guide on the Library Research and Learning Online site Slide Video transcript: Narrator (Donna) All stages of the research and learning process involve note-taking, from listening to lectures, through working on assignments, to preparing for exams These questions will get you thinking about the benefits of note-taking [pop up quiz question in the video] Question: How does effective note-taking help you to avoid breaches of academic integrity? Answer options: a It activates your memory and supports your learning b It enables you to track and accurately capture, recall and retain information and knowledge c It will ensure that you will finish your assignments d It promotes confidence and reduces stress For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A Question: Effective note-taking practices enable you to (choose all that apply): Answer options: a Collect sentences to be inserted into your own work www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 38 b Retrieve the information and knowledge you will need for assignments c Consolidate your learning d Capture the main thoughts of the work For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A [end of quiz question] Donna: There are many different note-taking techniques and each requires active listening or reading, mindful concentration and effort To be effective, note-taking needs to be: systematic, organised, user-friendly, and dynamic Good notes are the start of a working document which you can revisit and revise regularly and overlay with new insights, questions, connections, summaries and reflections To see examples of effective note-taking techniques, visit the Library’s tutorial about reading and note-taking Slide Video transcript: Narraor (Carmel and Ming Hui) Carmel: Hi Ming Hui and I would like to talk about some important ways to avoid plagiarism Ming Huig: That’s right And we are going to start with paraphrasing I’m sure you know in theory what it is, but can you it? Let’s find out Carmel: So let’s start with a very famous opening phrase from Act Three, Scene One of William Shakespeare's play Hamlet The character Hamlet says aloud to himself: To be or not to be, that is the question (Shakespeare, W., & Hibbard, G R., 1987) [pop up of quiz question in video] Question: Which one of the following paraphrases is acceptable? Answer options: To exist or not to exist, that is the question Should I continue to live, or should I end my life? I wish I had never been born For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 39 [end of quiz question] Carmel: Number one is definitely not a good paraphrase It’s actually an example of plagiarism, because only one word has changed and the form is the same Number three is not acceptable because it doesn’t capture the true meaning of the phrase Number two is acceptable It poses the questions which Hamlet is asking, in a new way You are going to use paraphrasing a lot in your writing at uni, especially when you are discussing or comparing different sources of information Ming Hui: Paraphrasing accurately and ethically allows you to bring the ideas and evidence of other writers into your own text, while acknowledging their contribution When you this, you show your lecturer that you have read widely and recognised what the experts think about your topic Carmel: Let’s review the main features of a successful paraphrase: • Most words are different • The meaning is the same • Some words change form For example, from a noun to a verb • The length or order of the text may change • The source is acknowledged in an in-text citation [pop up quiz question] Question: Identify the best paraphrase for the following quote: “The ability to effectively use (and acknowledge) source material is one of the skills that students must learn as they become part of the academic community” (Vardi, 2012 p 921) Answer options: One of the important skills that students must learn if they are part of the academic community is how to use and acknowledge source material (Vardi, 2012) An essential requirement of academic life at university involves learning how to work with original sources and cite and reference them correctly in your writing (Vardi, 2012) Knowing how to use sources is important for academics (Vardi, 2012) For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 40 [end of quiz question] Carmel: Now, let’s review another important skill for avoiding plagiarism summarising You probably know what summarising is, right? But did you know that you still have to cite all your sources if you combine the views, ideas or evidence of several authors? Effective summarising allows you to condense and combine several perspectives or pieces of information, in line with your writing purpose This can add strength to the points that you wish to make However, it is important to acknowledge where this information came from Summarising still requires accurate citing and referencing Ming Hui: To better understand how to paraphrase and summarise accurately and to see examples of good paraphrasing and summarising, visit the Library’s Research and Learning Online website Slide Video transcript: Narrator (Carmel) This strategy focuses on developing your academic voice as a way to help you practise academic integrity One way to develop your academic voice is to become familiar with the rules and expectations of your faculty or discipline, and to practise those conventions and styles in your own work Though this might seem hard at first, it will increase your confidence and improve your performance Another way to develop your academic voice is to use your own words to bring your perspective into the text, whether you are writing or delivering an oral presentation Have you ever received feedback from your tutor that says - “too much description and not enough analysis and discussion”? Or worse still, has the tutor suggested that sections of your text not appear to be your own work? This suggests that you need to develop your academic voice Let’s look at some examples of academic voice on the next screen Slide 11 Video transcript: Narrator (Ming Hui) www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 41 What is critical thinking? [pop up quiz question] Question: What you think ‘critical thinking’ means in an academic context? Answer options: a The act of criticising and finding errors in others’ academic work to prove which authors are the experts in a field b The act of criticising, opposing and insulting other work with citations c The act of analysing, questioning and scrutinising ideas and knowledge to establish their efficacy and value For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A [end of quiz question] Critical writing is an extension of critical thinking and critical reading The act of analysing, questioning and scrutinising ideas and knowledge to establish their relevance and value is the backbone of academic communication and the foundation of academic integrity Why you need to practise critical thinking? [pop quiz question] Question: Why you need to think critically? (select all that apply) a b c d To evaluate and identify quality academic sources To fully understand and engage with the materials you are studying To help you develop analysing, discussing, interpreting and skills To show your lecturers that you are capable and intelligent For the correct answer, refer to Appendix A [end of quiz question] When you attempt to bring a critical perspective into your writing you show that you are engaged with the content This signals to the reader that your assignment is likely to be your own, authentic work By breaking down and evaluating the claims, arguments, findings and biases you have found in your reading, you are demonstrating to your lecturers that you are developing important academic and professional skills These include the capacity to analyse, discuss, interpret and evaluate www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 42 The best way to discover how to write effectively using a critical perspective in your chosen field is to carefully read the discussion and analysis sections of a range of relevant peer-reviewed articles Notice how different writers critique knowledge, ideas, findings and other forms of evidence Also notice how writers use logic and specific types of language to analyse, interpret and evaluate Try to adopt some of these strategies in your own text Even if you are not entirely successful at first, your attempts will be appreciated by your lecturers and will show that you are genuinely adopting academic writing conventions For more practice on critical thinking, reading and writing, visit the Library’s research and learning online website www.monash.edu/library Last updated: 12/12/2018 43 Appendix C References Arena, M., & Chiaroni, D (2014) Roadmapping for sustainability: Evidence from an italian-based multinational firm, International Journal of Business Science & Applied Management, 9(2), 1-15 Retrieved from http://www.business-andmanagement.org/paper.php?id=102 Bretag, T., Harper, R., Burton, M., Ellis, C., Newton, P., Rozenberg, P., Saddiqui, S., & van Haeringen, K (2018) Contract cheating: a survey of Australian university students Studies in Higher Education, 1-20 doi:10.1080/03075079.2018.1462788 Monash University (2013) The Monash Academic Integrity Policy Retrieved from https://www.monash.edu/ data/assets/pdf_file/0004/801841/StudentAcademic-Integrity-Policy.pdf Monash University (2018) Academic integrity, plagiarism and collusion Retrieved from https://www.monash.edu/students/academic/policies/academic-integrity Shakespeare, W., & Hibbard, G R (1987) Hamlet New York: Oxford University Press Wood, L., Martin, K., Hayley, C., Nathan, A., Lauritsen, C., Houghton, S., Kawachi, I., & McCune, S (2015) The Pet Factor - Companion Animals as a Conduit for Getting to Know People, Friendship Formation and Social Support PLoS One, 10(4), E0122085 Vardi, I (2012) Developing students' referencing skills: a matter of plagiarism, punishment and morality or of learning to write critically?
