in Newcomers' Community4 years ago (edited)

Hello all , due to poor climatic conditions and ill health i was not able to complete all my achievement tasks given by @cryptokannon so today here i am with my task 3 of What is plagiarism ? Plagiarism can be defined as copying other person's work or ideas or even words and using it as your own words without quoting the line and without giving its source. In simple words we can say that copying of someone 's work and proving it to be your's is Plagiarism .
Types of Plagiarism 1. Direct Plagiarism : word -for-word transcription of a section of someone else's work without quotation marks or attribution can be defined as Direct Plagiarism. This is unethical and dishonest practice and should be stopped.

  1. Mosaic Plagiarism: When a student borrows phrases without quotation marks and keeps the same structure and meaning of the original. It is also called patch writing . It is academically dishonest and punishable.

  2. Accidental Plagiarism: When a person misquotes their sources or neglect to cite their sources or phrases a source by using similar words or sentence structure without attribution.

4.Self Plagiarism: Reusing your own work and presenting it brand new. And it should be avoided as it misleads the reader by presenting old work as completely new and original.

          How to avoid Plagiarism?

Properly cite sources from where the information is taken. For example the image below's link can be shown as

  1. Check your work for Possible Plagiarism: It's always a good Idea of using a tool to check whether outside source are properly quoted or not.

3 Properly quote and Paraphrase: Using of information with proper Paraphasing and Quoting. Please have a look on my task @cryptokannon
