What is your understanding of plagiarism?

3. Definition
Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author’s "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a violation of journalistic ethics.
Plagiarism comes from the Latin word for “kidnap” and has the idea of taking something that doesn’t belong to you.
Some synonyms are copying, piracy, theft, and stealing.
(Wikipedia)

4. context
Students’ work for a class is expected to reflect their own thinking and effort.
When students turn in an essay, they are affirming that they did the work.
The teacher’s evaluation of students’ work is based on that expectation and affirmation.
Students who use other people’s ideas and present them as their own are not being honest with themselves, the teacher, the school, or their fellow students.
Any grade that the teacher gives for that work doesn’t really belong to the student because the student didn’t do the work; the student didn’t earn the grade.
The student is taking credit and being rewarded for someone else’s work.
This is a form of theft and is not acceptable.

5. consequences
Such academic dishonesty is a serious issue and carries serious penalties:
A failing grade on the assignment
A failing grade in the class
Suspension from school
Expulsion from school
Teachers are aware of plagiarism and have ways of detecting it in student work.

19. Conclusion
Teachers are aware of plagiarism and have ways of detecting it in student work.
Students who plagiarize are not likely to get away with it and will suffer the consequences.
Even if they do get away with it, they will have cheated themselves out of a learning experience, lied to themselves, lied to the teacher, and lied to the school.
Do yourself a favor: do your own work, learn from the experience, and improve yourself; this is why you are in school!

Long ago, when there was no written history, these islands were the home of millions of happy birds; the resort of a hundred times more millions of fishes, sea lions, and other creatures. Here lived innumerable creatures predestined from the creation of the world to lay up a store of wealth for the British farmer, and a store of quite another sort for an immaculate Republican government.
In ages which have no record these islands were the home of millions of happy birds, the resort of a hundred times more millions of fishes, of sea lions, and other creatures whose names are not so common; the marine residence, in fact, of innumerable creatures predestined from the creation of the world to lay up a store of wealth for the British farmer, and a store of quite another sort for an immaculate Republican government.

Only two years later, all these friendly Sioux were suddenly plunged into new conditions, including starvation, martial law on all their reservations, and constant urging by their friends and relations to join in warfare against the treacherous government that had kept faith with neither friend nor foe.
Contrast the condition into which all these friendly Indians are suddenly plunged now, with their condition only two years previous: martial law now in force on all their reservations; themselves in danger of starvation, and constantly exposed to the influence of emissaries from their friends and relations, urging them to join in fighting this treacherous government that had kept faith with nobody--neither with friend nor with foe.
