ADLC Plagiarism Policy (ADLC Administrative Policy 60–1)
Plagiarism is the practice of representing someone else’s work or ideas as one’s own. It is an
academically dishonest practice and is detrimental to a student’s knowledge and skill development.
ADLC takes a progressive approach to plagiarism to educate and correct the behaviour.
All incidents will be documented and are subject to the consequences outlined below:
Important
While removal from a course is limited to the course in which the third incident has occurred, the
preceding steps can occur across different courses. A student who has been found plagiarizing in
Course A and held to the First Incident consequences who then plagiarizes in Course B will move to
the Second Incident consequences.
Any further occurrences after the Third Incident in any other courses will result in immediate removal
from that course. Ongoing occurrences may result in removal from all courses and barring of
registration with ADLC.
Sharing of ADLC Work (ADLC Administrative Policy 60–4)
Plagiarism is the practice of representing someone else’s work or ideas as one’s own. It is a dishonest
practice and is damaging to a student’s knowledge & skill development. Plagiarism is addressed in
ADLC Administrative Policy 60-01.
The sharing of school work, especially after having been marked by ADLC, to students for the
purposes of submitting plagiarized work (either paraphrasing or directly copying student work) is
dishonest, and this sharing goes against the Alberta School Act’s expectation of students to respect
school rules and co-operate with how schools offer education to their students.
ADLC prefers to take a progressive approach to the sharing of work with other students, in order to
educate and correct the behaviour.
If a student is currently enrolled in any ADLC course and found to be sharing school work, whether
from their current course or another, to others, the following will happen:
The student is informed that their work The student is removed from all active ADLC
has been submitted as plagiarized work by courses.
another student; a warning is provided that
further submissions of such work, from any
course, will be grounds for removal from the
current course(s).
If the student is not currently enrolled in any ADLC course and found to be sharing school work with
others, they are informed that their work has been submitted as plagiarized work by another student
and, as such, further registrations in any ADLC course will not be permitted. The incident will be
recorded on the student’s file.
Such actions do not limit ADLC to pursue other remedies (actions), either criminal or civil, for the
distribution of its copyrighted materials.
