Plagiarism:

People usually comitting plagiarism when use information of outside sourses like Internet, or books.

Plagiarism is copying some text and using it without indicating that it was copied or where it was copied from.

These conditions apply to all printed materials as well as to all Web pages. It makes no difference where the text came from, or who wrote it, or which organization published it.2

If you complete an assignment by copying material, you are not showing that you understand something.

How to avoid?

Be sure to use quotation marks around any copied text you use, and at the same time, be sure you clearly show where you got the text.2

Recomendations:

1. Read information and explain it in your words. 1
2. Important thing is that the reader can see what is yours, and what is someone else's. 1
3. Don`t paraphrase, only use someone else's writing when it serves a purpose. 1
4. Only use someone else's writing when you want to quote precisely what they wrote. If this is not your goal, use your own words. 1

Plagiarism is very serious and it can be grounds for failure in a course .

Ciing Sources

Whenever you quote, paraphrase, summarize, or otherwise refer to the work of another, you are required to cite its source, either by way of parenthetical citation or by means of a footnote.3

Most text works require you to assemble a list of the works that you have cited in your paper. This list, included at the end of your paper, may be termed "Works Cited," a "Reference List," or a "Bibliography."3

1. In text citation: Insert a short reference in parentheses, put it at the last sentences and before the last period.

2. Insert a list with all your sourses completely , this list it put it at the last page of your paper.

Example of Plagiarism:

Original Source Material: Technology has significantly transformed education at several major turning points in our history. In the broadest sense, the first technology was the primitive modes of communication used by prehistoric people before the development of spoken language. Mime, gestures, grunts, and drawing of figures in the sand with a stick were methods used to communicate -- yes, even to educate. Even without speech, these prehistoric people were able to teach their young how to catch animals for food, what animals to avoid, which vegetation was good to eat and which was poisonous.
