What is plagiarism?
• Using someone else's words, opinions or ideas without giving credit to the source;
• Using facts, statistics, graphics, drawings, or any other type of information that is not considered common knowledge without giving credit to the source.
• Paraphrasing someone else's words without giving credit to the source.
"Giving credit to the source" means naming, or citing, the source from which the borrowed material comes.
