What is
Plagiarism?
Plagiarism is the borrowing or copying of another persons
work without giving credit to that person. Plagiarism
can be intentional or unintentional. Plagiarism
involves copying directly from another persons work,
borrowing or copying someone else's ideas, or paraphrasing
another's work or ideas. It is academically dishonest
to misrepresent someone else's work as your own.
It is not necessary to cite something that is
common knowledge. For example, the Titanic sank
in April 1912. It is not necessary to cite this
widely know fact.
