Just a question
 
I know everybody is getting ready for X-mas, but I have a question about preparing worksheets. If I find an online exercise and I make it into a word doc., will it be considered as a stolen one or it can be my own �legal� contribution?

Thanks for the answer in advance!

Happy Holidays to Everyone!!!

One of the rules (on the registration page) is...

"You can only send printables created by yourself. You will never send  printables taken from other websites or publications. You will never send printables whose origin you don�t know (worksheets borrowed from other teachers, for example). If we find stolen printables we will delete the account of the user who sent them."

so, if you�re going to use an online exercise please be careful about how you do it! Some sites allow you to put your own information in to generate a worksheet. If it is that situation then of course you could upload it.

If you copy something from another source (without referencing) it is plagiarism. If you copy something in its entirety without adding to it & referencing it, then it is also plagiarism.

You can use information and (inspiration) from another source but please, put yourself into it - create questions, ideas, information... make it your own & then upload it!!!

Cheers,
