Describe a few ways to prevent plagiarism
What will be an ideal response?
The following are different ways to prevent plagiarism (Myers & Hansen, 2006): 1) Take complete notes, including complete citation of the source. (For articles, include author's name, year of publication, title of the article, journal name, volume number, and page numbers. For books, also include the publisher's name and city. 2) Within your paper, identify the source of any ideas, words, or information that are not your own. 3) Identify any direct quotes by quotation marks at the beginning and end of the quotes, and indicate where you got them. 4) Be careful about paraphrasing (restating someone else's words). It is greatly tempting to lift whole phrases or catchy words from another source. Use your own words instead, or use direct quotes. Be sure to give credit to your sources. 5) Include a complete list of references at the end of the paper. References should include all the information listed in Item 1 . 6) If in doubt about whether a citation is necessary, cite the source. You will do no harm by being especially cautious.
