Click here to access your LibGuide: https://forsythtech.libguides.com/c.php?g=1132910&p=8280716This forum has been created for me to gauge your current understanding of what constitutes plagiarism. Post a summary of the information that you learned from the assigned web sites this week. In doing this, be careful that you do not plagiarize! Make sure that you do not just post what the web sites say. Instead, explain the information and then note what impact it has had (or will have) on you. You may give an example if that helps prove your point, but it needs to be one that you create, not one that you take from another location. Your initial posting should be a minimum of 200 words.

When you have finished making your post, read through your peers’ posts and reply to two of your peers.  Your replies should be a minimum of three meaningful sentences each.  “Meaningful” means your replies move the conversation forward as if you were talking to your peer in class. In other words, comments like “great job” and “I agree” are nice comments to make, but they will not count toward the three sentence minimum.
