What to check for in plagiarism?

Question

I need like a checklist of things to check for in plagiarism?

Answer 1

Copy and past the document to the website www.turnitin.com.

This compares the paper with over 1 billion other papers that have hit the site. It will hi-light what areas have appeared in other papers and tell you the percent of the assignment that has "overlaps". There is also a function where you can have it ignore items in quotes, because these are usually sited references.

Answer 2

If you have a passage you think might be plagiarized, copy and paste it into a search engine and it might just show up on someone else's work or website. And sometimes you can get a gut feeling about some writing if it just doesn't sound like that person could have written it that way.

Answer 3

well first of all if the person doesn't write like before
using words he or she probably doesn't even know the meaning to
if there is a website on the bottom of the page

Answer 4

words like "click here to learn more," are always a given. most students up to their freshman year of college, don't really read when copying and pasting off the internet.

Answer 5

Ah, don't worry about it. English class is pointless anyway.

Answer 6

bumps and things..
