Original
Source Material: An important characteristic of
instructional-design theories is that they are design oriented
(or goal oriented). This makes them very different from what
most people usually think of as theories. Theories can be
thought of as dealing with cause-and-effect relationships or
with flows of events in natural processes, keeping in mind that
those effects or events are almost always probabilistic (i.e.,
the cause increases the chances of the stated effect occurring)
rather than deterministic (i.e., the cause always results in the
stated effect). |

Whether they
are probabilistic (i.e., the cause increases the chances of the
stated effect occurring) or they are deterministic (i.e., the
cause always results in the stated effect), we can think of
theories as dealing with cause-and-effect relationships or with
flows of natural processes.

Reigeluth
(1999) states that we can think of theories "... as dealing with
cause-and-effect relationships or with flows of events in
natural processes," and goes on to say that they may be either
"probabilistic (i.e., the cause increases the chances of the
stated effect occurring) rather than deterministic (i.e., the
cause always results in the stated effect)" (p. 7).

Explanation: This example of student written work is
plagiarized. The student re-organized the original material, and
inserted portions of the material in different places within the
new paper, but it is still word-for-word plagiarism. Although
the work was cited in the references, no credit was given to the
author of the text and quotation marks were not used. |
Explanation: Note in this example that the passage begins
with the author and year of the publication. Quotation marks are
used to indicate that the several passages are word-for-word
citations from the original document. The author is also listed
in the references. |
