Chapter 14: Frequently asked questions 14.40.4 What is my NDS password? 92 RMIT Library URL: http://www.rmit.edu.au/library Location: City Swanston Library Building 8 Level 5 ITS - Information Technology Services URL: http://www.rmit.edu.au/its Which Account Information and Log In TABLE 1: NDS - Novell Directory Service In the RMIT Library, students can gain access to general use PCs. To use these computers, students will need to use their NDS account. They can then browse the Library catalogues and database or use the PCs for course work, such as research and word processing, printing and scanning. The library also has a vast web site and online catalogue, that students can access to locate past exam papers or reserve material. It also contains journal article databases, e-journals, Library services (such as borrowing, Reserve services, Document Delivery) and documentation on using the library and its computer facilities. For printing in the library, and other general access labs, students need to pay for the pages using a photo copy card. This card can be purchased and recharged from the library, at the photo copy desk. Details of use, are readily available at each printing location. ITS supports the University, students and staff in academic and administrative IT operations. ITS maintains the University's electronic communications infrastructure, email, telephony and data and maintains central computing services for administration, research and Internet publication. ITS also provides students with RDS (Remote Dial- in Services), and computer facilities on campus (general access labs). Phone: (03) 9925 2296 Email: response.centre@rmit.edu.au Across RMIT University, all students have an account that lets them access most of the computer services. This account is referred to as the "NDS Account". Students will use this University wide account throughout their studies. It allows students to logon to the computers in the library, to use the SEMS and eRMIT sites (as described below), and to access the various file drives, such as the student's home drive and various other course drives and local applicable drives. The username for this account is simply the student number with the letter "s" at the start (e.g. "s9912345"). The default password is your date of birth, in the format yyyymmdd (e.g. Nov 9th 1980 would be "19801109"). Each account also belongs to a context, which is denoted by the department/school in which the student is enrolled. The context may need to be specified during login, in the advanced settings of the login box. They are as follows for CS&IT students: cs.appsci.rmit For any support or further help with NDS, including lost password, students must refer to the CS&IT Duty Programmers. If you have forgotten your password, see “System Help” on page 100.
14.41 Photocopiers 14.41.1 I need to use a photocopier. Can I get access to one? 14.42 Plagiarism 14.42.1 Academic Integrity Workshop available 14.42.2 What is Plagiarism? Chapter 14: Frequently asked questions You can find photocopiers in the Swanston library (Building 8, Level 5) and in Building 10, Level 4. Note, though, that photocopying is not free. At the start of each semester you can attend a workshop on academic integrity. To register to attend one of these sessions click the ‘Week 1 Activities’ link at www.rmit.edu.au/csit. Plagiarism is cheating. Specifically, it is wrong to submit an assignment that contains other people's work without acknowledgement, or to help someone else to plagiarise. Students are encouraged to discuss their work and seek advice when they are struggling with problems or assignments. However, students need to be aware that: • They must not submit material that is not their own work. • They must not submit work they don't fully understand. • They must not submit work that has been copied from elsewhere, unless they have permission from the lecturer to include copied material and there is full acknowledgement of which material is copied. • They must not enable other students to plagiarise their work. While it is fair practice for a student to seek advice while developing a solution to an assignment, the solution must primarily be the student's alone. As a rule of thumb, an assignment is plagiarised if writing it (or writing any non-trivial part of it) involved having another solution to work from; or having a sketch of a solution written by someone else; or even having a sketch of a solution developed together with a friend. If the outline of a solution or part of a solution is from a textbook, or was provided by the lecturer, this material can only be used with the permission of the lecturer, and must be acknowledged in the assignment's documentation. In group assignment work, there is a shared responsibility by all group members to ensure that the work has been completed within the group. It is essential to contribute honest work to the joint submission and to clearly indicate who is responsible for each individual section. Other situations are also treated as plagiarism. In particular, giving a solution to another student is plagiarism; if a student gives their work to a friend or friends, all are cheating and are equally disciplined. The only case in which it is acceptable for a student to include other people's work in an assignment is when there is explicit permission from the lecturer. In this case, the part of the assignment that is copied must be clearly acknowledged. For example, if the copied work is included in a program, the program should include all of the following forms of acknowledgement: • A detailed comment at the start of the program stating that part of it is copied, and stating who wrote the copied part. • Clear comments in the body of the program marking the start and end of the copied material. These comments must also give the name of the author. • If code has been obtained from elsewhere, then modified by the student, the modifications need to be explained. For example, a comment might have the wording "The original code obtained from Jos Leubnitz was modified to print more detailed error messages". Each adaptation of the original code should be documented. 93
