3. Good Advice: Whenever you are doing research, always cite your sources.
In plain English: give title, author, publisher, etc. of anything*
you have taken from somewhere
other than your own brain.
*(words, charts, artwork, lyrics, ideas, etc., etc.)

4. Plagiarism defined:
To steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own; use (a created production) without crediting the source.
Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary

5. We are using: MLA (Modern Language Association) Style of Documenting Sources.
Note: There are other ways of citing sources, your teacher, college professor and/or college librarian will have information about what style to use. See:
