Plagiarism

 From the Latin word “plagium” which means kidnapping.

Taking ideas, words, art, etc. that belong to someone else, and passing it off as your own, whether on purpose or by accident.

 You don’t need to cite a source if it’s a well-known fact.  For example: “George Washington was the first US president.”  Cite sources when you are using information other than well- known facts.

 A website has just the right information on my subject, so I cut and paste it to my paper.

 Put the pasted material in quotations and cite your source in-text and in the works cited page.

 I really like the way the writer described the character in a book, so I write his/her words down in my book report.

I can write... “As JK Rowling put it in The Order of the Phoenix, ‘The evidence the dark lords had returned was incontrovertible.’ “

 I copied a paragraph from an encyclopedia and changed a few words so it looked a little different and let the teacher think they were my words.

 I can read the paragraph, close the book and write, in my own words, what the paragraph was saying.  This is called paraphrasing.  Still needs an in-text citation and works cited listing.

Using other people’s work is a good thing if I give them proper credit.

Write source cards as you use resources. Number them. Put each new fact on a notecard, include source card number & page number Put quotes around directly quoted facts

 If the information is new to me, it probably needs to be cited.

 I could receive an F or 0 on my paper.  I may not get credit for the class and have to take it again.

 If I plagiarize in high school, I may not graduate on time.  I could lose college acceptances and scholarships.  At a job, if I take credit for someone else’s work, I could be fired.

 Don’t plagiarize  Give credit where credit is due  When in doubt, cite it
