Introduction:

Plagiarism involves copying material, either word from word or as a paraphrase, from anything ranging from books, to internet sites, course notes, oral or visual presentations, lab reports, computer assignments, or artistic works. Plagiarism does not refer to words alone — it can also refer to copying images, graphs, algorithms, tables, and ideas. A “presentation”means more than written work: it means any method by which you submit work to your instructor. Even translating the work of another person into another language without citation is plagiarism.Plagiarism means taking the words and thoughts of others (their ideas, concepts, images,sentences, and so forth) and using them as if they were your own, without crediting the author or citing the source.

Plagiarism includes reproducing someone else’s work, whether it be published article, chapter of a book, a paper from a friend or some file, or whatever. Plagiarism also includes the practice of employing another person to alter or revise the work which a student submits as his/her own, whoever that other person may be. Students may discuss assignments among themselves or with an instructor or tutor, but when the actual work is done, it must be done by the student, and the student alone.

WHY MIGHT PLAGIARISM OCCUR ?

There are many reasons why scholars and students plagiarize, for example:

1.When a student is not fully aware of what plagiarism is.

2. When a student does not fully understand the conventions required in academic writing.

3. It can be a panic response to poor time management when an essay deadline is looming.

4. If a student feels a desperate need not to be seen as a failure and so copies to try to ensure ‘success’.

5. It can be a response to different academic traditions.

6. It can be a response to information overload and the ease with which text can be cut and pasted from the other electronic documents or pages on the Internet.

7. It can be an attempt not to displease a tutor.
