Consider the following situation: For a course Timmy is taking, he has to conduct a research experiment and write a full research report. Part of the research report is a literature review. Timmy feels really lucky because earlier in the semester they had to write a literature review for the same class. Can Timmy use the same literature review he did earlier in the course for this assignment? Check one option.
A.
No, this would be considered self-plagiarism.
B.
No, this would be considered Fabrication.
C.
Definitely. If it is on the same topic for the same course, Timmy does not need to write the literature review again.
D.
It depends; Timmy should check his course outline or lecturer to make sure.
