Plagiarism is defined by the dictionary of the Royal
Academy as the action of "substantially copying other
people's works, giving them as their own". Therefore,
plagiarism is a serious offense: it is the academic
equivalent, to theft. A student who plagiarizes does
not take his education seriously, and does not respect
the intellectual work of others.

There is no small plagiarism. If a student makes use

of any portion of another person's work, and does not
document their source, they are committing an act of
plagiarism. Now, it is clear that we all have the ideas
of others when it comes to presenting ours, and that
our knowledge is based on the knowledge of others.
But when we rely on the work of others, academic
Plagiarism
honesty requires that we explicitly announce the fact
policy
that we are using an external source, either by
appointment or by an annotated paraphrase (these
terms will be defined below). When we make an
appointment or a paraphrase, we clearly identify our
source, not only to give recognition to its author, but
also to allow the reader to refer to the original if he
wishes.

There are academic circumstances in which,

exceptionally, it is not acceptable to quote or
paraphrase the work of others. For example, if a
teacher assigns his or her students a task in which
students are clearly asked to respond using their ideas
and words exclusively, then the student should not
appeal to external sources even if they are properly
referenced
