Your goal is a short, scholarly and informative fact sheet on the topic assigned. Thus your term paper should be concise, complete, and focused. In particular, for many topics, it is very easy to find specific product information from companies that advertise on the Internet or in trade magazines. Parroting such literature is not appropriate to your paper. Keep the mention of specific companies and products minimal and justified.
Your paper should be mostly in your own words. All words that are not your own must be within quote marks with an attributed source. Plagiarism is defined in the UVI Course Catalog as "passing off the ideas or work of another as one's own without crediting the source." Further, as stated in the catalog, plagiarism is academic dishonesty and grounds for an automatic "F" in the course for the first offense.
