 * "arguing that plagiarism cannot be cast as a simple black‐and‐white issue, the prevention of which can be achieved via threats, warnings, and admonitions, I suggest that it needs to be understood in terms of complex relationships between text, memory, and learning" page 1.


 * plagiarism needs to be understood

 * "universities subscribe to on-line plagiarism detection products such as Turnitin.com to check potentially assignments"
 * from the years 1963 to 1993 the percentage of plagiarism went from 39 to 64.

Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.

Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is subject to sanctions such as penalties, suspension, expulsion from school or work, substantial fines and even incarceration. Recently, cases of "extreme plagiarism" have been identified in academia. The modern concept of plagiarism as immoral and originality as an ideal emerged in Europe in the 18th century, particularly with the Romantic movement.

Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but like counterfeiting fraud can be punished in a court for prejudices caused by copyright infringement, violation of moral rights, or torts. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Plagiarism and copyright infringement overlap to a considerable extent, but they are not equivalent concepts, and many types of plagiarism do not constitute copyright infringement, which is defined by copyright law and may be adjudicated by courts. '''One thing to keep in mind is that plagiarism might not be the same in all of the countries. Some countries like India and Poland consider plagiarism to be a crime and there have been cases of people being put in jail for plagiarizing. In other istances plagiarism might be the complete opposite of "academic dishonesty", in fact some counties find the act of plaigirizing a professional's work flattering. For students who come from countries where plagiarism does not exist to the United States where it is possible to get fined for such an act might be a very difficult thing to transition to.'''

The feedback that I would like is

If what I added was good and did fit in the paragraph and where it was placed?

What more could I add?

Are my resources good and do would you believe it to be reliable?

+ Plagiarism this is the original article.

Max and Nana's Review

 * Sources 2 and 4 are the same and that source is a blog so you may want to rethink your use of it
 * We fixed your spelling ;)
 * The last few sentences could be reworded and we do not feel the third sentence is necessary, perhaps you could incorporate it in with your 4th.
 * You may want to move the sentences talking about the consequences in different places, it does not fit super well

Ahmad Melissa & Hannah -
Sources 2 and 4 are unreliable. Your contribution is good since it draws attention to flaws in plagiarism. Grammar check. Is the third source a direct quote or are you giving a summary.
