Plagiarism is using
the words and ideas of someone else and presenting them as your own.
The act is a violation of trust and the consequences are serious.
For example, you must cite when using:
Another person’s ideas, words, opinions
Any facts, graphs, drawings, … ANY kind of information that is not common knowledge
Quotations: another person’s spoken or written words
Paraphrases: minimally changing another persons words or ideas
