The first question that I chose is the question number 1. This question is about if I have a paper assignment to write for a class but the topic is similar to the paper that I have written before for a different class; will I be able to re-summit the paper? In this case, I can just rearrange the paper again and make it a little bit longer so it wouldn’t be the same. However, the best way that I picked is I have to talk to a teacher about the situation first. Another question that I chose is the question number 8. This question is one of the common issues due to plagiarism. It is about if I take some information on the Internet and post it on my class list online; will it consider as a plagiarism? This question is actually not that clear, they do not mention whether I give a credit to the article or not. If I give a credit, it wouldn’t be considered as a plagiarism but if I don’t, it would be a plagiarism.
The first question is actually important to know. To be honest, I am a lazy student and I would resubmit my old paper for sure if I don’t know that it would be considered as a plagiarism. For this case, most people will think that this is their paper and they have a credit for it. However, by resubmitting the paper, student will not get any new education from that class which is the main purpose of taking class. Rewriting a new paper would be a great benefit to a student. For the second question, it reminds students that every time that we use other sources, we have to give a credit to it. It would be super dangerous if we don’t give and a credit, which will lead to a plagiarism case. As a student, it is such a great benefit to know about these rules. Learn since young age so we can avoid making problems in the future.
