Before listening to the "helpful" advice of those who are justifying CHEATING(i consider them to be the biggest LOSERS OF ALL in every sense of the word) and certainly haven't even attempted the Professional Ethics Module themselves (BTW its the pre-requisite before submitting the RAP)...pls read the "Oxford Brookes University cheating statement" and i quote
<b>All assessments are intended to determine the skills, abilities, understanding and
knowledge of each of the individual students undertaking the assessment. Cheating
is defined as obtaining an unfair academic advantage and any student found using
any form of cheating, attempting to cheat or assisting someone else to cheat may be
subject to disciplinary action in accordance with the University's Disciplinary
Procedure. The University takes this issue very seriously and students have been
expelled or had their degrees withheld for cheating in assessments. If you are having
difficulty with your work it is important to seek help from your tutor rather than be
tempted to use unfair means to gain marks. Do not risk losing your degree and all the
work you have done.
The University's regulations define a number of different forms of cheating, although
any form of cheating is strictly forbidden. These are
#61623; submitting other people's work as your own - either with or without their
knowledge. This includes copying in examinations; using notes or
unauthorised materials in examinations
#61623; impersonation - taking an assessment on behalf of or pretending to be
another student, or allowing another person to take an assessment on your
behalf or pretend to be you
#61623; plagiarism - taking or using another person's thoughts, writings or inventions
as your own. To avoid plagiarism you must make sure that quotations from
whatever source must be clearly identified and attributed at the point where
they occur in the text of your work by using one of the standard conventions
for referencing. The Library has a leaflet about how to reference your work
correctly and your tutor can also help you. It is not enough just to list sources
in a bibliography at the end of your essay or dissertation if you do not
acknowledge the actual quotations in the text. Neither is it acceptable to
change some of the words or the order of sentences if, by failing to
acknowledge the source properly, you give the impression that it is your own
work
#61623; collusion - except where written instructions specify that work for
assessment may be produced jointly and submitted as the work of more than
one student, you must not collude with others to produce a piece of work
jointly, copy or share another student's work or lend your work to another
student in the reasonable knowledge that some or all of it will be copied
#61623; duplication - submitting work for assessment that is the same as, or broadly
similar to, work submitted earlier for academic credit, without
acknowledgement of the previous submission
#61623; falsification - the invention of data, its alteration, its copying from any other
source, or otherwise obtaining it by unfair means, or inventing quotations
and/or references.</b>

The RAP Information Pack contains every possible detail about the project....pls do the labor of at least reading it.
