eimsori [14]

One way to demonstrate academic integrity is to give credence and acknowledgement to the sources of your information.

For example:
You wrote a definition of a term. And you found that definition in a book authored by somebody. On you paper, you either write "According to the novel written by author, TERM is defined as..."

For example:
You are tasked to define the word "plagiarism".

To demonstrate academic integrity, you define plagiarism like this:

According to wikipedia, Plagiarism is <span>the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.

Note that you have stated your source.
You can then add your own input and thought about the word. Like this:

I believe that plagiarism is an act of a lazy person. A person who pretends to be smart but in reality is just a parasite.

In your opinion, is the “Modern” state of human creation (science, technology, intelligence, etc.) beneficial or detrimental to

Elza [17]

Evolution of science, technology and intelligence has both improved and worsen human life. When properly used, science and technology have always been very good tools for advances in industry, everyday comforts, health, and education, thus giving us a better quality of life.

All these improvements are linked to each other, creating a chain of benefits for civilization. If we think of life expectancy, for example, we can realize our ancestors used to live less time, this is because medicine has significantly evolved thanks to science and technology. Another example is communication, nowadays we can instantly get in touch with a person who is miles away thanks to the creation of cellphones and computers.

But, when improperly used, science, technology and intelligence can be destructive. This was the case with WWII, in which technology and science were employed to build weapons of mass destruction, as the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

It is also true that our planet is deteriorating due to these activities, and if somebody has to take responsiblity for it, it is us, but only us together can help the planet get better. The following quote from the novel by Mary Shelley shares the same ideal:

"It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.”
