Plagiarism is using someone else’s ideas or words without giving them proper credit. Plagiarism can range from unintentional (forgetting to include a source in a bibliography) to intentional (buying a paper online, using another writer’s ideas as your own to make your work sound smarter). It can cause you to fail a class--or can even get you kicked out of school! To learn more about plagiarism, click these links:
