PICTURE OF PLAGIARISM

PLAGIARISM

Plagiarism is the misrepresentation of authorship. Really, words and ideas conceived by one person are attributed to another person.

Plagiarism is a form of intellectual theft or fraud and it undermines the intellectual economy that values ideas, words, and understanding. Even when an act of plagiarism

appears superficially a victimless crime, it nonetheless devalues the currency of human thought and thereby weakens society.

In the most common form of plagiarism, one author’s words are inserted verbatim in the work of a second author, without quotation, acknowledgement, or attribution. But

there are many other forms of plagiarism, including some that are often accepted or even encouraged by society, notably ghostwriting, speech-writing, and paraphrasing.

CONSEQUENCES OF PLAGIARISM
