Learners
view the introductory humorous video on plagiarism which is located at http://youtu.be/tUSaQ5-mDRI
and read the following definition found
at Turnitin.com
“An act of
plagiarism would seem to be easy to recognize based on simple criteria: Is the
work the
author’s own creation and written in the author’s own words? If not, does the
writing provide
appropriate credit to previous work? Increasingly though, the lines of
what constitute
plagiarism are blurring as the Internet reshapes culture and education.”
