Plagiarism-Nicole Provins


     Plagiarism is a common mistake people make  in schools and works. Plagiarism is when you take someone else's ideas or work and copying it without giving them credit for their work. We should not plagiarize because it shows that you are lazy and decided not to do the work, you do not learn anything, and you are taking credit from the person that took the time to do the work and got an answer. You can avoid plagiarizing by citing the source or rephrasing the person's ideas or work in your own words. Plagiarism is very serious and will not be tolerated anywhere because you are stealing the work of someone elses and taking credit for it. You wouldn't want someone stealing and taking the credit of your work right? That is why we should avoid plagiarizing. It is better to have an inaccurate answer than getting a zero and an F in citizenship for plagiarizing.
