You Can Avoid Plagiarism
You can avoid plagiarism by:
- Taking careful notes, writing down the citation for the source, and indicating page numbers.
- Using quotation marks when copying the words of an author.
- Giving credit to the original author in the text and bibliography of your paper.
- Not procrastinating. You are more likely to plagiarize--either accidentally or on purpose--when you are in a rush.
- Paraphrasing well.
