#2 Plagiarizing

• • What did the student do wrong? What could he/she have done to include the source correctly?
    What the student did wrong, was that he/she another persons work, without quoting or listing the source. What the student could of done, was paraphrase the context, and then at the end of the post, list where he/she got the information.
    
    Write a sentence using the original source correctly; use a quotation or paraphrase. Also, make sure to cite correctly.
    In "A Brief Understanding of the Starry Night Paintings", the author says that "the center point of the town is the tall steeple of the church, reigning largely over the smaller buildings. This steeple casts down a sense of stability onto the town, and also creates a sense of size and seclusion." I agree with this paragraph, because Van Gogh really does try and focus on the town, but not give it a lot of attention.
    
    What are at least 3 ways to avoid plagiarizing?
    Three ways to avoid plagiarizing is
    - Just cite the source, be nice and give the author the credit
    - Paraphrase the paragraph, or context
    - Use the context as inspiration, and come up with your own version of it, and keep going on with it.
