Plagiarism is defined by Oxford's languages as "the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own ". Plagiarism is illegal and definitely not allowed when submitting school work. Please take the time when investigating something to try and understand it. Once you understand it, simply convey your understanding. This is your own idea. For more information on plagiarism look under the "supplemental resources" subpage under the "Home" page. Again, plagiarized work will not be accepted.
