Plagiarism

What is Plagiarism? The act of presenting another person's literary, artistic, or musical work as one's own. For example, a student who copies from reference books has committed plagiarism. A work need not be identical to the original to be a plagiarism. But it must be so similar that it has obviously been copied (“Plagiarism,” World Book Online).

What is Plagiarism? “the uncredited use (both intentional and unintentional) of somebody else's words or ideas” (“Avoiding Plagiarism”).

What is Plagiarism? Intentional –Copying from a friend –Buying/borrowing papers –Copying/pasting from a resource

What is Plagiarism? Unintentional –Not citing your sources –Poor paraphrasing –Quoting nearly everything

Problems Unethical / dishonest Illegal Punishable by fine or imprisonment Can be sued

Real life example Jayson Blair –Investigative Journalist –New York Times writer –He possibly plagiarized more than 1/3 of his stories in –He was FORCED TO RESIGN –L&O episodes/play written “New York Times Exposes Fraud of Own Reporter.” ABC News Online. 12 May, ***Lawyer, doctor, home contractor, financial investor

Is this plagiarism? Editors at The New York Times revealed in May 2003 that the newspaper had published articles containing material that a reporter had falsified, plagiarized from other news organizations, or written while he was far from the events he had claimed to be covering. New York Times officials said that an investigation of the reporter, Jayson Blair, found 36 errors in 73 articles written between October 2002 and April Blair left The New York Times on May 1. New York Times Editors revealed in the spring of 2003 that the paper had printed articles containing information that a reporter had plagiarized from other news associations, or created while he was not in attendance at the events he claimed to be covering. Officials at the New York Times said that an investigation of Jayson Blair, the journalist, found over 30 errors in over 70 articles written between Autumn 2002 and Spring On May 1, Blair resigned from The New York Times.

What do we do? Paraphrase Quote Cite your work Provide Bibliography

Paraphrase your own version of important details, information and ideas originally created by someone else, presented in a new form your own rendition of essential information and ideas expressed by someone else, presented in a new form _695_1020_590&f=00&su=p ip_&tt=2&bt=0&bts=0&zu=http%3A//owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/r esearch/r_paraphr.html

Paraphrase – How? Steps to Effective Paraphrasing Reread the original passage until you understand its full meaning. Write your paraphrase, using your own voice. Check your version with the original to make sure that it accurately expresses all the important information in a new form. “Use quotation marks to identify any unique term or phraseology you have borrowed exactly from the source.” Record the source so that you can give credit to it if you decide to use the material in your paper. 9_695_1020_590&f=00&su=p ip_&tt=2&bt=0&bts=0&zu=http%3A//owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/resea rch/r_paraphr.html

Paraphrase – practice ges/lesson1062/ParaphrasingPractice.p ps#256,1,Paraphrasing Practice (first 3 slides only)

Quote Quotations must be identical to the original. They must match the resource word for word and credit must be given to the original author.

Quote Use quotations –when you want to emphasize someone else’s statements –when you want to disagree with someone else’s statements – when you are comparing statements

Paraphrasing and Quoting Make sure you document your source within the text! Make sure you include a citation for that source in your bibliography!

Cite your work Do I have to provide citations for everything? NO! –Common knowledge –Your own thoughts, ideas –Things you have observed

Cite your work After a paraphrased entry or quotation, put the author’s name and page number in parentheses before the period. Example: “Reading itself promotes reading. A consistent finding in in-school free reading studies is that children who participate in these programs are more involved in FVR after the program ends than those in traditional programs” (Krashen, p. 81).

Cite your work If you are using an internet resource, put the webpage title in parentheses before the period. Example: “Those who read more, know more... There was a clear relationship between the amount of reported leisure reading and performance on the literature test” (“Literacy without walls”).
