AVOIDING PLAGIARISM

Abstract

Abstract: Plagiarism­ –  Plagiarism means taking someone else's work and pretending it is your own. You might do this on purpose or by accident. It's wrong and you must give credit to the person who created the original work.  Plagiarism may also encompass the act of self-plagiarism, in which an individual recycles their previously published work without proper citation. As per the guidelines governing examinations, the act of deliberate or careless plagiarism is considered to be an offense warranting disciplinary action. Consequently, whenever you use the words or ideas of another person in your work, you must acknowledge where they came from.
