Joey is good at taking tests, but does not write papers very well. He does a lot of research, decides to rely heavily on quotations and does an exemplary job of citing his sources. Is this plagiarism?

AWhile not dishonest, an important part of writing papers is demonstrating the ability to synthesize and create new information.

BNo, he cited all information properly

Incorrect! Overusing quotations is not good writing even when cited properly.

Incorrect! A parenthetical and works cited reference are needed.

Greg uses information from his geology lab workbook in his lab report. Does he need to cite it?

Incorrect! Even lab manuals and workbooks need to be cited.

Paraphrasing involves re-writing a statement in your own words. Try again.

Mary wrote a paper in freshman composition which she could now use in her sophomore-level sociology course. She should...

Use it but change a few words

Not use it because it was already turned in for credit

Discuss its use with the professor

Use it because she's the original author

You should always talk to your professor before reusing a paper, or simply don't reuse it. Try again.

How can Sheila use information from an uncopyrighted Internet source such as Wikipedia

not copyrighted, can use any way she wants

She can quote or paraphrase online sources, but must always cite the source. Try again.

Hmmm, it's dark in here!

You must always cite someone else's ideas, words, images, and other intellectual creations. Try again.

What are the penalties when/if you get caught plagiarizing your work?

could get expelled from school

must pay fine to the college

unpleasant chat w/ prof or dean

library privileges revoked

You can fail the assignment or class and will likely have an uncomfortable conversation with your professor. On your second offense, you could get kicked out of school. Lycoming does not fine students for plagiarism or revoke library privileges. Try again.

He must give an in-text citation and include the work in his bibliography. Try again.

The following text is part of an example research paper. Click on the text that tells you where the writer got his or her information from.

The recent literature on plagiarism is plentiful, but incomplete. The issue is very complex, and it is difficult to find a standard definition of plagiarism among faculty and administrators, let alone one that is understood by students. Most cases of plagiarism appear to be "accidental," stemming not from a deceive, but from an honest ignorance or confusion (Maurer, 2006). Students have a good reason to be confused...

The citation looks like this: (Maurer 2006). Try again.

Asking for help is always the best way to be sure. Try again.

"John is a particularly heartbreaking character, full of bluster as he tries to make sense of his abandonment by his abusive father and his well-meaning but immature mother."
Which of the following are acceptable ways to use this text in your paper?

AJohn is a very heartbreaking character, full of emotion as he tries to understand his abandonment by his father (Hynes, 2006).

BJohn's weakness is demonstrated by his obsession with the poor treatment from his father and mother (Hynes, 2006).

The first example is too close to the original and would be considered plagiarism.

Patrick took a paper he wrote for his his Education class and handed in the same paper for his Psychology class. This is considered plagiarism.

Not knowing the rules about plagiarism excuses Penny from the consequences if and when she is caught plagiarizing.

Julie states in her essay that carrots contain Vitamin A. She does not need to cite this information because it is common knowledge.

What is "patch writing"?

APiecing together copied words from several papers into a paper of your own

BPutting parenthetical citations into your paper, i.e. (Williams,34).

CWriting a paper with parenthetical citations, but no works cited page.

If Watson takes a direct quote from his research, he should...

CPut quotation marks around the words taken

Activity 2: Original Text: What we lose when animals become extinct (National Geographic)

# data[].attributes.body
And unfortunately, what goes for mammals goes for just about every other animal group: reptiles, amphibians, fish, even insects. Extinction rates today are hundreds — perhaps thousands — of times higher than the background rate. They're so high that scientists say we're on the brink of a mass extinction.

The last mass extinction, which did in the dinosaurs some 66 million years ago, followed an asteroid impact. Today the cause of extinction seems more diffuse. It's logging and poaching and introduced pathogens and climate change and overfishing and ocean acidification.

But trace all these back and you find yourself face-to-face with the same culprit. The great naturalist E.O. Wilson has noted that humans are the "first species in the history of life to become a geophysical force." Many scientists argue that we have entered a new geologic epoch — the Anthropocene, or age of man. This time around, in other words, the asteroid is us.
