Paraphrasing
Hello everyone...
Do you know what is paraphrasing?
Okay let me explain into simpler sentence. Paraphrase is to include the ideas or information from an original author into your paper but by using your own words. The key to successful paraphrase words as possible from the original text-be remind not to change the meaning that you paraphrase and to cite your paraphrase. This is because, unproper citation, your paraphrase are actually plagiarism
Here are 3 tips for a good paraphrase:
1) Your paraphrase must have the same meaning as original. Which means include all important ideas, do not add any new ideas and do not alter the tone and original intention.
2) You should use your own words. This means try to change the vocabulary as much as possible. Morever change the sentence structure as much as possible. Next, do not copy more than 5 words in a row.
3) You must cite the original source, for example telling readers where you got the information.

Plagiarism
Hello everyone!!!
This time I would like to discuss about the most thing students had done even once in their life. Yes, it is plagiarism. Have you ever done it? Yes of course, I have done it several times..hihi..
According to the Dictionary.com plagiarism is an act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another author without authorization and the representation of that author's work as one's own, as by not crediting the original author.
In my point of view, it is not wrong to get an idea from the their authorization but at least show your respect by crediting them in your proposal, journal, assignment etc. Basically, plagiarism is the best choice for students who have lack of time to finish it(last minute session), second they have lack of knowledge about their research, copy paste others work is the best way for them, third maybe they don't know how to paraphrase it at all.
People actually this is not the way you learn all about, yes, you will get many idea but the work is not yours. So learn something, just make their ideas as references, you can do it more better. Believe yourself :)
