NHS FPX 4000 Assessment 1 – Pledge of Academic Honesty (Sample)

Pledge of Academic Honesty

Commitment to Personal Integrity

NHS FPX 4000 Assessment 1: I promise to do my own work for this and any other class. I promise that all of my work will show my own thoughts and efforts. I will clearly note any use of outside sources, rewording or summarizing them in accordance with academic standards. Unless otherwise noted, all written content will be real.

Understanding of Peer Contributions

I understand that it is dishonest to use any part of a peer’s discussion post without giving them credit. Additionally, making minor alterations to someone else’s work without providing proper credit constitutes academic dishonesty.

Guidelines for Academic Work

Responsibility to Uphold Integrity

I promise to tell my teacher right away if another student lies about my work or the work of someone else. All Capella University students have a shared duty to uphold academic norms.

Citing and Paraphrasing Practices

I will ensure accurate citations and proper use of the APA format when quoting, rephrasing, or summarizing sources. Direct citations will be in quotation marks and put in the context of the assignment. NHS FPX 4000 Assessment 1: Paraphrased content will use different words and sentence structures to stay original.

Utilization of Academic Integrity Resources

To better understand academic integrity, I’ll go over resources like these:

• The resources include “Academic Integrity” and the “APA Style and Organization.”
• University Policy 3.01: Academic Integrity and Honesty (PDF)
• Maintaining Academic Integrity
• Stopping Plagiarism

Consequences of Violating Academic Standards

Consequences for Academic Dishonesty

I know that cheating or breaking any of Capella University’s rules about academic integrity is a serious offense.

1. If I break a rule, my teacher will talk to me about it.
2. The blameworthiness will provide me a chance to respond. 
3. You might receive a zero on the assignment, fail the course, or encounter other necessary punishments. 
4. Following the right steps, the violation will be reported to Capella University.
