Plagiarism

1. Teachers give students a topic to research.

According to www.bing.com, using the Encarta® World Dictionary, the definition of plagiarism is:

Stealing somebody's work or idea: the process of copying another person's idea or written work and claiming it as original

something plagiarized: a piece of written work or an idea that somebody has copied and claimed as his or her own

2. Teachers should remind students of the proper ways to paraphrase and document sources, using the “Plagiarism - Lesson plan –Intermediate” lesson plan.

3. Students work independently, in pairs, or in small groups to research the topic.

4. Ask the students to prepare five paraphrased notes and three quotes from the sources. They should cite at least five sources.

See the “Citing web sources” lesson plans for examples of how to use Microsoft Office Word 2007 to document sources used in research.

5. Discuss and share as a class the researched information.

6. Teachers should point out the positive examples of paraphrasing text, quotes from text, and citing resources.

For example, individuals, pairs, or groups could place the original source in an Office Word document or on a Microsoft Office PowerPoint® slide next to the paraphrased section. Then, using an LCD projector to display them to the class, have the students review and compare the two sections as a group.
