PLAGIARISM

      

  Assalamualikum. Today i want to share with you about the Plagiarism. What is Plagiarism?? Plagiarism is the act of taking another person's writing, conversation, song, or even idea and passing it off as your own. This includes information from web pages, books, songs, television shows, email messages, interviews, articles, artworks or any other medium. Whenever you paraphrase, summarize, or take words, phrases, or sentences from another person's work, it is necessary to indicate the source of the information within your paper using an internal citation. It is not enough to just list the source in a bibliography at the end of your paper. Failing to properly quote, cite or acknowledge someone else's words or ideas with an internal citation is plagiarism.

Examples of Plagiarism

                

1. Copying 

• Using the same or very similar words to the original text without acknowledging the source. 
• Copying materials, ideas or concepts from a book, article, report or other written document, presentation,  computer program or software, website, internet,  or another person's assignment, without appropriate acknowledgement

2. Collusion

• students providing their work to another student before the due date, or for the purpose of them plagiarising at any time
• paying another person to perform an academic task and passing it off as your own
• stealing or acquiring another person’s academic work and copying it
• offering to complete another person’s work or seeking payment for completing academic work.

  From my opinion, plagiarism will affect the other people and it is not good for the career of the students. This effect will be accepted by the other students and lecturers. For the other students, those who work hard to complete assignments can honestly feel betrayed by those who do not make the same effort and who may gain an unfair advantage when it comes to course grades.

While, for the lectures, they spend much time and spend much effort preparing classes, carefully reading and commenting on student writing, and meeting with students.

  I hope all the students can learn and be successful in the right way through his own hard work. Insyallah, success will be achieved when hard working and striving.
