Plagiarism
We need to cite anything that we write that isnt our words. That way our readers know they are someone elses words. If someone used something I wrote and didnt give me credit, I would be upset, because I put all the work and thought into it, and they are taking all the credit, it would be like stealing.

Hello LLineberger,
ReplyDeletePlagiarism is not a good thing to do in a work place or a school project. I had a person who was suppost to help me do a project when I was in college many many years ago, I did all the work and she said she did not have time to help me. I did not say anything to my professor. Well the time came when we had to do our oral presentation, the professor asked my partner a lot of questions, but of course she could not answer them. When the professor asked me questios I gave her the answeres. After class the professor took myself and my partner to the side and to use that she knew that my partner did not do her share of the project. She explained that not doin her part of the project was a form of plagiarism. The professor gave my partner a very low grade and she gave me a very high grade. The professor said that I did a lot work and that I deserved this grade. Well this is all I have to say. Good luck in all of your endeavors.
Thank you
Sally
