Plagiarism

In college it is simply not acceptable and here's where you'll find out why

A gift for plagiarists

Ohhhh thank goodness for the web

  • It’s never been easier to copy and paste
  • There’s loads to choose from
  • They’ll never know it's not me
  • Anyway I don’t have to reference what I found on the web.

Well it’s true that copy&paste has never been easier and there’s loads to choose from but I wouldn’t be so sure that they’ll never know it's you and you most definitely do have to reference stuff from the web.

And then there’s the world we live in today

  • Many people have a lack of self confidence in their own ability at college. A belief that their own work and words aren’t good enough.
  • Or, it’ll save effort. I haven’t the time to go researching this essay using library resources
  • In this hectic dog eats dog world many see their education not as a privileged opportunity to embrace knowledge but as a stepping stone to furthering their career prospects. So, therefore their reasoning goes, do what you must to get the grade and cut corners if you have to.

Well you can build confidence in your own research abilities, and these information finding skills once learned will save time down the line and help towards that better mark.
