A defence falls on a stolen witness faster than on I don’t know.
A teacher or a panel will ask where from. When you do not know, a fall of trust. Worse than I don’t know at an edge. I don’t know at an edge is honest. Theft at the core is a cheat. 学校 does not mark that as cleverness. コピーing is the opposite of a defence. A defence should be your work: your words, your witness, or someone else’s with a source name visible. Someone else’s chart with no line. Someone else’s paragraph as a thesis. A commission sees the style. Illustrator taught rights. Here sharper, because you stand at the board and say it out loud. What you cannot say where from with no shrug, delete. A shrug is a test of ethics, not of taste of colours. Do not copy a classmate’s defence. A team may share one file. Another team no. お名前 on someone else’s work is a lie about authorship. A parent holds the account. Do not copy another team. No email on a slide. No recording on the network. Today you walk slides: where from, whose words. What you cannot say out loud, delete.
Ema inserted a chart from the web and a thesis from Wikipedia. The teacher: where from? Fog. A mark ethics, not content. Content was already not hers. Adam own poll, own words, a quote with an author when he quoted. A commission believes even a smaller proof when it is honest. Bigger than someone else’s big one with no name. That is ethics of Advocate. It hurts to delete a pretty stolen chart. Honesty hurts less than a question where from at the board. A parent asked where from. Ema shrugged at wiki. She deleted the chart. Adam said: a poll in 6.B, my words. They marked a quote with quotation marks. A bare defence stayed. More honest than someone else’s big chart with no name. A teacher would hear that it is their work.
At every picture a source. At every thesis your words. A quote quotation marks and a name. What you cannot say where from out loud, delete.
Where from out loud, with no shrug
Walk slides. Every witness: a source line. Every sentence: your words, or a quote in quotation marks with a name. Click Present (F5). At every proof say where from. With no shrug. In PowerPoint the same. Wikipedia is not a thesis. It may be a trail to a source you name. Not copying an intro as yours. Your intro must be your breath and a verb. A parent: did you hear that it is their work? No? Ethics falls. Fix words and lines. A bare honest defence is cleaner than someone else’s chart in someone else’s coat. Team: one file yes. Another team no. 学校 handles authorship strictly. Right. A parent’s account. Team: one file yes. Another team no. お名前 on someone else’s work is a lie about authorship. 学校 handles that strictly. Right. Wikipedia may be a trail to a source. Not copying an intro as yours. Your intro must be your breath and a verb.
Wrong: a chart from the web, a thesis from wiki, where from, fog, a mark ethics.
Right: own poll, own words, a quote with an author. Smaller and honest.
A pretty stolen proof is a trap. Where from out loud is a test. Find one picture with no source. Add, or delete. Find a sentence that sounds like an encyclopedia. Rewrite in your own words, or mark a quote. Say out loud where from your main proof is. With no shrug. That is a test. Where from out loud. A line at a chart. Your words, or a quote. What you cannot say where from, delete. Another team no.
Do not copy a classmate’s defence. A team may one file. Another team no. お名前 on someone else’s work is a lie about authorship. 学校 handles that strictly.
Four things you will build in this course
The course has four small projects. You do not have to do them all at once. Today you add only this:
🎯 A hobby in 5 slides
Five slides about something you like doing. One sentence about what it is. No paragraphs from your notebook.
Hobby: a photo from the web with no source is not proof that you can do it.
📚 A report
Eight slides for school: a start, three proofs, an end. The title on every slide is a sentence, not “Slide 3”.
Report: a paragraph from wiki as a thesis is theft of the core.
📊 Survey results
A chart from a table (not a screenshot from chat) and under it where the numbers come from.
Survey: a friend’s chart with no name is not your survey.
⚖️ A defence
You say one sentence, show proof, answer “and what if…”. If you do not know, you say I don’t know.
Defence: ethics is a witness when IT and a chart fail. You say what is yours.
Walk slides: where from, whose words
Every witness a line. Every sentence yours, or a quote. Then say where from out loud.
-
At every picture and chart in Slides add a source. At every thesis check your words. Mark a quote with quotation marks and a name. In PowerPoint the same.
-
What you cannot say where from, delete. Present (F5). At proof say where from out loud. With no shrug.
-
Wikipedia: is not a thesis. A trail to a source yes. An intro must be yours. Check style.
-
A parent: did they hear that it is your work? No? Fix words and lines. Save the original.
-
A parent’s account. Do not copy another team. No email on a slide. No recording on the network.
Theft, or a source name
Someone else’s may be on a slide when it has a name. With no name it is theft.
-
Find one picture with no source. Add, or delete.
-
Find a sentence that sounds like an encyclopedia. Rewrite in your own words, or mark a quote.
-
Say out loud where from your main proof is.
Now you 💪
- Every witness has a source, or is deleted.
- A thesis is in my words, or a marked quote.
- I can say where from out loud with no shrug.
Done when: Proofs have a source name. Sentences are yours, or a quote. You can say where from in front of a commission.
What to take from this lesson
- Someone else’s chart with no line is theft.
- Someone else’s sentence as yours too.
- I don’t know at an edge is cleaner than theft at the core.
- Wikipedia is not a thesis.
- Another team is not copied.
- 名前s in the examples (Ema, Adam) are made up. Do not put your number, email or photo on a slide.
