Plagiarism


Have I ever plagiarized? I don't think so. BUT that does not mean that I haven't, or that I'm a saint!! lol ... I know I've cheated on a test before, I can't pinpoint a certain test or certain time, but I do know I have. When I was younger, I was notorious for not caring about school and not studying for tests. My way of passing you ask? Sitting next to the smart kids. Horrible... I know, but it wasn't a long-term and regular thing I did and it doesn't make me feel good (and Ms. Hanson, I promise I don't do this anymore)!!! 

As far as personal wise, I've never cheated on anyone. Although, I have helped someone cheat on their significant other and that was probably one of the worst feelings I've ever felt. 

These are all things to look out for to ensure you are not deliberately plagiarizing, or accidentaly plagiarizing.

In a nutshell… cheating, stealing, plagiarizing are all bad things to do and all three have repercussions.

  1. Yet again, another great spoken/written voice. I hope you get more and more confident and continue sharing in both venues. We will definitely review some unintentional plagiarism avoidance tactics in class Tuesday. Remind me---bonus ;)
