Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V. How was it? Fun?


First of all, have you heard about a plagiarism before? Do you understand on the concept of this stuff?

See the title of this blog post. Do you know what it was mean? Let me tell you what it was referred to.
Ctrl + C = COPY
Ctrl + V = PASTE

So, how was it, if you try this while doing your works such as your assignments and reports? It was fun and easy right? Laugh out loud. Yeah.

Well, let me remind you that if you do this, you are totally on the wrong path, especially as a university's student. Why it was wrong?

"Hey, I just copying and then pasting it. I do wrong nothing!"
Wow, so easy to talk right? Why don't you asking on why it was claimed as your fault.

"Oh, I really did it wrong? I seem confused. Can you explain it to me? And why you say so? Why it was wrong when I am just copying and then pasting it on my assignments or reports?"

Plagiarism. Yes, what you have did are called as plagiarism. And, yes, you are wrong because you are using other people's work without his/her permission first.




"So, what about if i get his/her permission first before copying and then pasting it onto my assignments? I still done my work in a correct way , right?"

Dear, you are still wrong. Sigh.
Feeling guilty.

Plagiarisms on our assignments and reports are not only copying words from online journals or articles as you are imagined. It can be in many various ways. It is also known as the topic that is popular among universities level.

Turnitin able in tracking and finding the similarities between students' work and online works by tracking electronic papers in order to avoid plagiarism. Therefore, lecturers can detects students who are plagiarised, and who are not plagiarised their assignments or reports.

Students must avoid plagiarism in order to maintain their originality of works, They can read others' work in order to get better understanding and information. However, they must not used the original ideas or words from that sources. There are other ways which students still can use the original sources without being plagiarised. Direct paraphrases an summarises must be documented. Therefore, any original words or quotes must be cited.


Very easy, right?
