Question

There is a design methodology called rapid prototyping, which has been used successfully in software engineering. Given similarities between software design and instructional design, we argue that rapid prototyping is a viable method for instructional design, especially for computer-based instruction.

Answer 1

Answer: This is not plagiarism

Which of the following is true for the Student Version?

Word-for-Word plagiarism

Paraphrasing plagiarism

This is not plagiarism

Explanation:

Plagiarism is the use of a published work without attributing credit to the author. Word-for-word plagiarism is when a body of text is copied from the original work and made to seem like one's work.

Paraphrasing Plagiarism rewrites the text by substituting words with their synonyms but it still has the same information as the original text.

In this question, the student's version is different from the original text. The student argues for the efficiency of rapid prototyping while the original text explains why it is a possible design methodology for instructional design. What they both have in common is that they mention how successful rapid prototyping has been in software design.
