What is Plagiarism? Plagiarism is borrowing, stealing, paying someone to write a paper,and copyin large parts of section. These are most commons types we as students know about.

There are some practices that we as students should enhance our skills upon. Such as updating our techniques on direct quotations, note taking, writing summaries, revising and profreading a paper.(Purdue Owl) I really feel that if we as students upgrade some of our techniques list above, then it would seriously count down the chances of committing plagiarism.Basically to avoid plagiarsim you need to cite all words and ideas that did not come from you.
