h. All of the above
All the examples listed are instances of plagiarism:
a. Copying and pasting text without referencing the source: This is direct plagiarism, as it
involves using someone else's work without giving proper credit.
b. Buying essays online and submitting them as your own: This is a form of contract
cheating and is considered plagiarism since the work is not original and is being
presented as the student's own.
c. Resubmitting previously submitted work without referencing: Self-plagiarism occurs
when you submit your own work again without proper acknowledgment. Each
assignment is expected to be original and unique unless stated otherwise by the
instructor.
d. Submitting an individual assignment created by a group: If the assignment is meant to
be individual work, submitting a group assignment as your own is plagiarism.
e. The use of paraphrasing software: If the paraphrasing is not appropriately cited or too
closely resembles the original work, it can still be considered plagiarism.
f. Paraphrasing text and including citations that are not the correct citation for the
information provided: This is a form of incorrect citation, and presenting false information
about the source of the material is also a type of plagiarism.
g. Including proper in-text referencing with the text but relying too closely on the text’s
original wording and/or structure: Even if proper referencing is done, excessively close
reliance on the original text without proper quotation marks and citations could still be
considered plagiarism.
In academic and professional settings, plagiarism is a serious offense that can lead to
severe consequences, including academic penalties and damage to one's reputation. It's
essential to give credit to the original authors and properly cite all sources used in your
work.
