Definitions Giving credit to a source for words and ideas from the source “a technical term for the procedure whereby writers identify the sources of their information” (Searles 303)

What needs to be documented? Exact words (quotations from sources) Ideas (paraphrase of source material) Statistics Visuals

Plagiarism Using a source’s words or ideas without giving the source credit; using those words and ideas as though they are your own

Penalties for Plagiarism In school: failing a project or class; withdrawal or expulsion At work: loss of credibility; loss of position or job; possible legal action Unintentional: possible F on report Intentional: possible F in class

Ways to Plagiarize Omitting documentation entirely Omitting quotation marks from quotations Failing to paraphrase thoroughly

Original: However much Abraham Lincoln believed in democracy, the American masses, in the half-century following their war-President's death, did not seem to believe in themselves. Paraphrase: No matter how much Abraham Lincoln believed in democracy, American masses did not appear to believe in themselves in the half-century after their war-President's death. Lewis, L. Myths after Lincoln. New York: Press of the Readers Club.

Paraphrase: The average American in the 50 years after Lincoln died possessed no self- confidence, despite the fact that Lincoln had a great deal of faith in democracy.

Documentation Styles MLA: Modern Language Association APA: American Psychological Association CBE: Council of Biology Editors ACS: American Chemical Society AMS: American Mathematical Society AIP: American Institute of Physics
