Academic Honesty is an essential element of the MYP and DP programmes. This link should lead you to the MYP specific directives, and the quote in the side bar is taken directly from the IBO.

This includes images. Theatre and Academic Honesty Assessment components across the arts vary considerably, from oral presentations to formal written work, from the presentation of practical work to the collection of ideas and stimuli that inspire the creative process. Referencing sources If a student uses any content from any source, including the internet, these must be acknowledged consistently following the protocol of the referencing style chosen by the school, in a style that clearly identifies the section of the work that is being attributed and its origin. When the student is aware that another person’s work or ideas have influenced their own but it has not been referred to directly in their work, the source must be included as a bibliography reference within the student’s research. This is particularly relevant to the arts where the creative process will be the result of many stimuli, influences and sources of inspiration. DP Theatre Guide (2014) p.10 |
Academic honesty in the Diploma Programme
Academic honesty in the Diploma Programme is a set of values and behaviours informed by the attributes of the learner profile. In teaching, learning and assessment, academic honesty serves to promote personal integrity, engender respect for the integrity of others and their work, and ensure that all students have an equal opportunity to demonstrate the knowledge and skills they acquire during their studies. All course work—including work submitted for assessment—is to be authentic, based on the student’s individual and original ideas with the ideas and work of others fully acknowledged. Assessment tasks that require teachers to provide guidance to students or that require students to work collaboratively must be completed in full compliance with the detailed guidelines provided by the IB for the relevant subjects.
