  1. Plagiarism is… • N. 1The appropriation or imitation of the language, ideas, and thoughts of another author, and representative of them as one’s original work. 2. something appropriated and used in this manner. –The Random House Dictionary of the English Language, College Edition, 1968.

  2. 3 Kinds of plagiarism • 1: The Copied Essay: literally copying (and pasting) someone else’s work and using it like it’s your own original thoughts • 2: Copied Language: Using someone else’s language (phrases, clauses, sentences) as your own without indicating with quotation marks and citation that it belongs to someone else • 3: Copied Ideas: Presenting the thoughts and ideas of someone else (without citing the source) as your own. Even if you summarize their ideas, you should still include a source citation.

  3. Examples Original source (Wikipedia) Sample Essay The Endosymbiotic theory says that the organelles of eukaryotes started by working together as unicellular organisms. According to this theory, mitochondria and chloroplasts represent formerly free-living bacteria that were taken inside another cell. • “Theendosymbiotic theory states that several key organelles of eukaryotesorig-inated as symbioses between separate single-celled organisms.  According to this theory, mitochondriaandplastids (e.g. chloroplasts), and possibly other organelles, represent formerly free-living bacteriathat were taken inside another cell as an endosymbiont.  Molecular and biochemical evidence suggest that the mitochondrion developed from proteobacteria and the chloroplast from cyanobacteria.”

  4. Examples Original source (Wikipedia) Sample Essay The Endosymbiotic theory says that the organelles of eukaryotes started by working together as unicellular organisms. According to this theory, mitochondria and chloroplasts represent bacteria that were taken inside another cell (Endosymbiotic 1). • “Theendosymbiotic theory states that several key organelles of eukaryotesorig-inated as symbioses between separate single-celled organisms.  According to this theory, mitochondriaandplastids (e.g. chloroplasts), and possibly other organelles, represent formerly free-living bacteriathat were taken inside another cell as an endosymbiont.  Molecular and biochemical evidence suggest that the mitochondrion developed from proteobacteria and the chloroplast from cyanobacteria.”

  5. Examples Original source (Wikipedia) Sample Essay A long time ago prokaryotes worked together in a beneficial way. Some organelles could be “formerly free-living bacteria that were taken inside another cell” (Endosymbiotic 1). Eventually eukaryotic organisms were produced. • “Theendosymbiotic theory states that several key organelles of eukaryotesorig-inated as symbioses between separate single-celled organisms.  According to this theory, mitochondriaandplastids (e.g. chloroplasts), and possibly other organelles, represent formerly free-living bacteriathat were taken inside another cell as an endosymbiont.  Molecular and biochemical evidence suggest that the mitochondrion developed from proteobacteria and the chloroplast from cyanobacteria.”

  6. Examples Original source (Wikipedia) Sample Essay A long time ago prokaryotes worked together in a beneficial way. Eventually eukaryotic organisms were produced. In fact, “molecular and biochemical evidence suggest that…chloroplast [developed] from cyanobacteria” (Endosymbiotic 1). • “Theendosymbiotic theory states that several key organelles of eukaryotesorig-inated as symbioses between separate single-celled organisms.  According to this theory, mitochondriaandplastids (e.g. chloroplasts), and possibly other organelles, represent formerly free-living bacteriathat were taken inside another cell as an endosymbiont.  Molecular and biochemical evidence suggest that the mitochondrion developed from proteobacteria and the chloroplast from cyanobacteria.”

  7. When to use in text notations You will need to use in text notations (author’s last name and page number in parentheses) when you: • Quote from a source • Paraphrase someone else’s idea or theory • Use statistics • Use unusual or controversial ideas or facts

  8. How to use in text notations • Notations are placed immediately after the information from the source. • The author or editor’s last name and page number where the info was found should appear in parenthesis ex. (Smith 457) • Ask me if there’s more than one author • If there is no author, use a shortened form of the title with the page number (Endosymbiotic 27) • No commas!! • Anything you notate needs to be on your reference page
