Plagiarism Quiz

Name:

Using something I find on the Internet/Web for a class assignment is always okay.

Plagiarism is using the ideas and words of someone else as my own work without citing the original work.

Taking small bits of general information from the Internet/Web and using it as my own work or to complete an assignment/work is plagiarism.

I can quote passages from a papers that I found on the Internet/Web for my class assignments/work if I properly document where I found the information.

If I download something from the Internet/Web and change a few words and phrase, I can use that information for manuscript without having to cite it.

Information that is "common knowledge," like "The Golden Gate Bridge spans San Francisco Bay" doesn't have to be cited.

If someone said something in a lecture or on TV, I don't have to cite it because it is not written
