comm2

Well, actually I just know little about plagiarism, so when a friend of mine gives me a link, I did read about it. And perhaps, it has enlightened me on some things but I know I am still not good enough. The links that my friend gave me is the ff:
Now let’s start on the assignment:
On student1 revision, it is obviously a plagiarized work. The words are copied word for word. He didn’t even put an effort to paraphrase it. He just put it as his own work. In order for him to avoid it, he must put some sources or acknowledge the author in a proper way. Also, he must put some ideas of his own on his text.
On the other hand, student 2 revision looks like a not plagiarized work because he cites the author of the said “thing”. But based on a text I read about plagiarism, it is a plagiarized work, for he didn’t put some proper quotation on it and also he didn’t cite where it could be found. So he must put proper quotation and the sources.
