Plagiarism
DEFINITION
What is plagiarism? Plagiarism is an
act where someone is taking or stealing someone else’s works, ideas, thoughts as
your own original work with or without their knowledge and consent. Plagiarism
is a crime and you can be punished in a court for prejudices caused by
copyright infringement, violation of moral rights, or lawsuit.
Why is it wrong to do plagiarism? First,
because it is a form of theft. By taking someone else’s thought and idea and
pretending like it is your own is really unethical. Second, you are really a bad
person if you take any profit from it.
There are so many types of plagiarism
but I will only discuss 4 common types of plagiarism:
1. Direct
Plagiarism
Direct plagiarism is copying someone
else’s work word for word without the use of quotation marks and then acknowledge
it as your own work.
2. Self-Plagiarism
Self-plagiarism is the reuse of one's
own work significantly, identically, or nearly identical, without reference to
the original work.
3. Paraphrasing
Plagiarism
This type of plagiarism is using
someone's work with some small differences in the sentence and use it as your
own. Even if the word by word is different, the original idea is still the same
and plagiarism occurs.
4. Accidental
Plagiarism
This plagiarism occurs when you don't
understand how to paraphrase, quote, and cite. People can assume that your
research is original from your ideas or thoughts, when in fact you took some
words from a book or website and you do not include an in-text citation.
