A STUDY ON PLAGIARISM AND
HOW CAN AVOID IT
What is plagiarism?
(And why you should care!)
Definition:
Plagiarism is the presenting the words,
ideas, images, sounds, or the
creative expression of others as your
own.
Did You Know?
The word plagiarism comes from the
Latin plagiarius meaning "kidnapper"
Two types of plagiarism:
• Intentional
• Copying a friend’s work
• Buying or borrowing
papers
• Cutting and pasting
blocks of text from
electronic sources
without documenting
• Media
“borrowing”without
documentation
• Unintentional
• Careless paraphrasing
• Poor documentation
• Failure to use your own
“voice”
• Paraphrasing without giving credits to the
original source
• Quoting less than what has been copied
• Creating a paper by cutting and pasting
phrases, sentences, or paragraphs from
other publications
• Working on an individual assignment with
a partner and turning in identical answers
Common Types of Plagiarism
How serious is the problem?
“A study of 4,500 students at 25 schools:
72% admitted to serious cheating on
written assignments using the
Internet.”
Based on the research of Donald L. McCabe, Rutgers University
Source: “CIA Research.” Center for Academic Integrity, Duke University, 2003
<http://academicintegrity.org/cai_research.asp>.
Desperate Types of Plagiarism
• Copy an entire article from the Web or a
subscription online database
• Download a free research paper from the
Web
• Buy a paper from a commercial paper mill
• Fake a citation to get by so as to meet the
deadline
• Use a paper with permission from a friend
who took the same course or chose the same
research topic
What Can We Do to
Prevent or Ward off
Plagiarism?
Major Writing Styles
• Introduce students to print and online resource
guides on major writing styles
• MLA:

Works-Cited

• http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_apa.html
• Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association
(Reference: BF76.7 .P83 2001)
• Turabian (Chicago):
• http://library.deltacollege.edu/IC/turabian.html
• http://www.nwmissouri.edu/library/citing/turpar.htm
• A Manual for Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and
Dissertations (Reference:LB2369 .T8 1996)
Useful Resources
• Quizzes & Activities:
• Plagiarism Attitude Scale
• Citation Quiz
• Using Sources Quiz
• Acceptable Use Versus Plagiarism Exercise
• “You Be the Judge” Activity
Popular Commercial Tool
Plagiarism is a serious offense and can lead to
failing grades or suspension from school.
• The consequences are not
worth the risks!
• It is only right to give credit
to authors whose ideas you
use
• Citing makes it possible for
your readers to locate your
source
• Cheating is unethical
behavior
Is your academic
reputation valuable
to you?
How to avoid plagiarism
• Quote and cite phrases, sentences,
and paragraphs taken directly from
the original source.
• Quote and cite statistics, charts,
graphs and drawings taken directly
from the original source.
• When you paraphrase or summarize,
give credit to the original author.
Do I have
to cite
everything?
Question:
Answer: YES!!
Except –
• When you use your own words
• When the fact used is common knowledge.
What makes it “common knowledge”?
If you can find the same information in at least 3
different sources, you don’t have to cite it.
Ex. George Washington
wore wooden dentures.
What’s the big deal?
You can “borrow” from the
works of others in your
own work! Be very
careful.
Use these three strategies,
• Quoting
• Paraphrasing
• Summarizing
To blend source materials in with your own,
making sure your own voice is heard.
Quoting
Quotations are the exact words of an
author, copied directly from a
source, word for word. Quotations
must be cited!
Carol Rohrbach and Joyce Valenza
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing means putting someone else’s words or
ideas into your own words.
Although you are using your own words, the ideas are
taken from someone else and must be cited on your
Works-Cited page.
Paraphrasing
• Paraphrasing is not simply
rearranging or rewording an original
passage.
• You have to understand what the
author is saying and write the ideas
entirely in your own words.
Paraphrasing
• Give the author credit when you
quote or paraphrase.
• “According to Jim Carty, the CATS
are ranked fourth in backcourts this
year with Rondo, Sparks, Crawford,
Bradley, and Moss.”
DON’T
• Cut and paste from any source
• Use another student’s work as your
own
• Just change a few words from any
source for your paper
• Turn in a paper you wrote for another
class
A Plagiarist is:
• Too careless
• Too lazy
• Too dishonest
• TO DO A GOOD JOB!
• By Cindy Nottage
You can prevent plagiarism
(stealing words and ideas).
• All you need to do is:
• Take notes—put in your own words.
• If you do copy words, put “ ” around
them and footnote whose words they
are.
• Keep track of EVERY resource you
use!
• Cite all of your sources at the end of
your work.
