Note that there are 3 types of plagiarism: 1. Intentional plagiarism includes submitting a work found online, copying portions of a written work, inappropriate use of AI, and “borrowing” papers from other students. 2. Unintentional plagiarism includes a lack of knowledge regarding source use, misunderstanding of citation rules, and careless notetaking. 3. Self-recycling includes recycling your writing for another assignment. Please be advised that the Bible Institute utilizes plagiarism detection software (Turnitin) that reviews every submitted assignment. The consequences for participating in any of these types of plagiarism may include receiving a zero for the assignment, being put on a disciplinary contract, and/or dismissal from Word of Life Bible Institute. F. AI Policy Integrity and honesty are key biblical and theological concepts that must be applied to all areas of life and ministry, including academic study. While AI tools can be beneficial for idea exploration, students must author and create all work themselves. Critical thinking, personal understanding, and implementing effective research and writing techniques are Program Learning Outcomes that cannot be achieved through the use of AI. No submitted coursework should be created by someone or something else. Inappropriate use of AI tools is in direct opposition to our plagiarism policy. The determination of what constitutes inappropriate use of AI is at the discretion of the professors and Academic Staff. G. Questions Questions will be limited during lectures due to class size. Students should only ask questions that are relevant to the whole class. Students should be careful not to monopolize class question opportunities. Disrespect to lecturers in any form will not be tolerated. Questions can be directed to the instructors between classes, but students must be sitting in their assigned seats before the second bell rings to start class. II. ACADEMIC INFORMATION A.
