[QUOTE="WhymeMom?, post: 231986, member: 53"] This is the sad thing about online courses, they don't know you from adam, eve or the man in the moon.......... Personally if I were the professor I would be happy you took the time to look up the definitions to read the book or cut/paste the answer. This in my mind is just busy work anyway and the real understanding is when you take a test, can you put the definitions to practical applications........ This however means that major scores are based on limited tests and you have few chances to score busywork points..... and the prof has to know how to ask questions that don't come straight out of the book.......In other words it takes much more time and thinking to create the class online...... Guess I would try to go in and talk with the prof and say in your answer the book stated this definition on page so and so, to me this means--------(and put it in your own words) If you credit the original information it wouldn't be plagiarizing, would it?
