Plagiarism
Plagiarism is “the intentional or unintentional use, to any degree, of the ideas or words of one’s source material without proper acknowledgement. Plagiarism typically takes two forms:- Substantial: Failure to acknowledge the use of an author’s ideas or organization by footnote or identification of the source in the text of the paper. Incomplete paraphrase [only changing either the syntax or only inserting synonyms] is plagiarism.
- Verbal: Failure to acknowledge the use of an author’s words by quotation marks as well as by footnote or identification in the text.”
