Assalamualaikum & " SALAM UITM DI HATIKU "

Hello to all readers ! Its me , Azwan from UITM Raub , Pahang . This week , i'm going to share about what I learned from my 4th study skill lesson .

Before that , let me show you the syllabus content of all STUDY SKILL lesson we will learn in this interim's semester .

    SYLLABUS CONTENT

2.  Goal Setting
3.  Library & Campus Resources
4.  Time Management & Organizational Skills
5.  Memory Learning & Improving Concentration
6.  Taking Lecture Notes
7.  Academic Integrity & Performance 

I bet this is one of the best topic we will learn !

FOR THIS DAY , I WILL SHARE ABOUT  " ACADEMIC INTEGRITY & PERFORMANCE " LESSON  , JUST TO BE CLEAR , THIS TOPIC WE WILL HAVE 2 SUBTOPIC .

FOR THE FIRST SUBTOPIC , WE WILL HAVE :

MODUL7.1 : PLAGIARISM

PLAGIARISM IS TAKING OTHERS WORK AND MAKE IT AS YOUR OWN WORK WITHOUT GIVING CREDIT TO THE ONE WHO CREATED THE IDEA .

IN YOUR ASSIGNMENT , IF MORE THAN 30% OF IT IS FROM A PLAGIARIZED , YOUR ASSIGNMENT WOULD GET NO MARK !

 

SO , TO PREVENT SUCH A THING LIKE THIS , YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PREVENT FROM PLAGIARISM .

1.  CREDIT.

IF YOU USE AUTHOR SPECIFIC WORD , YOU MUST GIVE THEM CREDIT FOR IT

FOR EXAMPLE : " ANYONE WHO HAS NEVER MADE A MISTAKE , HAS NEVER TRIED ANYTHING NEW "

-ALBERT EINSTEIN

2  YOU MUST CREATE AN IDEA FROM INFORMATION YOU GET  (PHRARAPRASE)

FROM WHAT INFORMATION YOU GOT , YOU CANT COPY IT RIGHT AWAY . IN FACT , YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND IT , AND TRY TO CHANGE IT TO YOUR OWN WORD .
EVENTHOUGH YOU USE YOUR OWN WORD , IF THE IDEA YOU GET IS NOT FROM A COMMON KNOWLEDGE , YOU STILL NEED TO STATE FROM WHERE YOU GET THE SOURCES .

3. COMMON KNOWLEDGE

IF YOUR POINT IS FROM A COMMON IDEA , YOU DONT NEED TO STATE WHERE YOU GET THE SOURCES .

FOR EXAMPLE :

-WATER FREEZE AT 0'C DEGREE

-EVEREST IS THE TALLEST MOUNTAIN IN THE WORLD.

BUT IN CASE IF YOUR WORLD IS BOTH OF GENERAL AND SPECIFIC IDEA , AND YOU USE EXACT WORD FROM THE SOURCES YOU GET , YOU STILL NEED TO GIVE CREDIT TO THE AUTHOR.

7.2  CALCULATING GRADE POINT AVERAGE ( GPA )

AS A STUDENT , YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO CALCULATE GRADE POINT AVERAGE SO THAT YOU CAN PLAN ON HOW YOU CAN REACH WHAT YOU AIM .

SO AS YOU CAN SEE , THIS IS THE GPA FOR EACH SUBJECT .

THERE ARE 2 TYPE OF IT , GPA AND CGPA

GPA IS AVERAGE POINT OF ALL SUBJECT FOR 1 SEMESTER

CGPA IS AVERAGE POINT OF ALL SEMESTER THE STUDENT HAVE STUDIED

BELOW IS THE EQUATION ON HOW TO CALCULATE GPA AND CGPA

FOR EVERY SEMESTER . IF YOU GPA IS NOT GOOD , YU COULD GET SOME OF THESE STATUS

FOR THIS SESSION , I HAVE BEEN GIVEN EXERCISES ABOUT CALCULATING GPA AND CGPA , SO I WILL SHOW IT HERE .

SO , THIS IS ALL FROM ME FOR THIS SESSION , I WILL UPLOAD MORE

FOR NEXT SESSION , SO STAY TUNED AND THANKS FOR WATCHING !
