Plagiarism is a big deal - Tutorial
Plagiarism is a big deal, and it’s not something you want to find out about the hard way. It could get you dismissed from the university! Researching ethically is also researching efficiently: not only will you learn how to avoid plagiarism, but you’ll also pick up some good research tips too.
Vaughan Memorial Library, Acadia University, The Governors of Acadia University has made the tutorial about plagiarism and why it’s essential to start your research early.Also explains the difference between paraphrasing and quoting, and how to do both properly. When to cite, what to cite, and how to cite.
