May 17, 2010

We have to really look at our selves and think how much we plagiarize each day and not realize it. Before you say not me I would never do that, stop and really think on what I am saying. How many of us have used a saying from a movie jokinly and not cited the movie, person who said it or even the writer of the movie. If you look at the meaning Merriam-Websters dictionary to plagiarize means:
  • to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own
  • to use (another's production) without crediting the source
  • to commit literary theft
  • to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source.
Huh makes you think!
