Plagiarism Plagiarism is the practice of taking
someone else’s work or ideas and passing them off as one’s own.
Statistics According to Plagiarism.org, “59% of high
school students admitted cheating on a test during the last year. 34% self- reported doing it more than two times.”
According to Edudemic, “Between 2010 and 2011, over 35 million papers were submitted to turnitin.com. There were over 128 million content matches from these papers on the web. That represents about 3.7 content matches per paper submitted!”
