WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?
• Plagiarism is “the action or practice of taking someone else's
work, idea, etc., and passing it off as one's own; literary
theft.”
• Plagiarism is not merely copying of text; it also refers to
using another's ideas as one's own, regardless of the specific
words or constructs used to express that idea
• You will commit plagiarism if fail to include quotations or
acknowledge the sources in your paper
• Articles increasingly available as electronic text in Internet,
has made the physical act of copying the work of others much
easier, imply increasing risk of plagiarism

EXAMPLE OF PLAGIARISM
Word-to-word Copy
• Original
• Your Text:
The concept of identity construction is crucial in second
language learning. English learning at the tertiary level is
both a process of acquiring language skills, and a process
of understanding who the learners are and how they are
related to the learning community, the national
sociocultural context and the imagined global community.
Plagiarized!

Using other’s words and ideas without acknowledgment
• Original
• Your Text:
The concept of identity construction is crucial in second
language learning. Post-secondary level English learning
not only represents a process of acquiring language skills,
but also helps the learners to understand own identities
and their relationship with the learning community.
Plagiarized!

MORE ABOUT PLAGIARISM
• Is it plagiarism, if I just copy a few
words from other’s work?
• Is it an act of plagiarism, if I copy
from an unpublished work?
• What is the result, if I found
committing plagiarism?
• Is plagiarism the same as copyright
infringement?

COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT PLAGIARISM
• AFTER CHANGING THE WORDS, WE DON’T NEED TO CITE THE SOURCE
AND IT’S NOT PLAGIARISM
• EVERY FACT NEEDS TO BE CITED
• PLAGIARISM IS WHEN THE TEXT IS COPIED AS IT IS FROM SOME SOURCE
• TO AVOID PLAGIARISM, ONLY PAPER (PRINTED) SOURCES NEED TO BE
CITED
• PLAGIARISM CAN BE DETECTED BY PLAGIARISM CHECKER OR SOFTWARE
• PLAGIARISM DOESN’T HAPPEN, WHEN YOU COPY THE IDEAS FROM NON-
COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL
• PLAGIARISM IS ALWAYS A PLANNED ACTION
• PLAGIARISM AND SIMILARITY ARE ONE AND THE SAME
23th Sept, 2023

TRICKS THAT CONTENT DEVELOPERS PLAY…
• COPY TEXTS FROM SEVERAL SOURCES AND PASTE
• COPY TEXTS FROM SEVERAL SOURCES AND USE 1-2 CONNECTING SENTENCES
BETWEEN THE 2
• CHANGE ALTERNATIVE SENTENCES
• CHANGE A FEW WORDS IN A SENTENCE
• CHANGE EVERY NTH WORD
• COPY TEXT FROM SOME SOURCE AND REFERENCES FROM SOME OTHER SOURCE
• COPY SEVERAL CITATIONS FROM SOME OTHER SINGLE SOURCE
• USE SOFTWARE IN AN UNETHICAL MANNER E.G. SPINNING, ETC.
• STEAL TEXT FROM SOFTWARE DATABASE
• DELETE CITATIONS FROM A COPIED TEXT
• CHANGE THE CITATION FOR DISGUISING OTHERS

HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM?
• Use Quotations to show clearly the extent of other’s work
1. Direct quotation
When discussing potential problems in building collaborative digital
resources, Straw warned that:
Preservation and security concerns will also arise in putting together
digital partnerships. Proper professional handling of archival, original,
fragile, unique, and sometimes rare items during the digitization
process should be taken seriously. (Straw, 2009, p. 109)
2. Quoting short part of sentence
When discussing potential problems in building collaborative digital
resources, Straw pointed out the critical issues of “preservation and security
concerns”. Safe handling of materials during digitization must be assured
among digital partners. (Straw, 2009)
• Paraphrasing (re-writing in your own words) with in-text citation
• Cite & list the sources

CITING REFERENCES
 ALLOWS TO USE OTHER PEOPLE’S WORK BY GIVING CREDIT
TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR WITHOUT PLAGIARIZING
