Plagiarism is considered a common problem in every school, which has become a big issue today. To use another person's idea or a part of their work and pretend that it is your own is plagiarism. In other words, plagiarism is when a person copies something from the Internet, from another's work or steals someone's ideas and tells people that it is their work. Work that can be considered plagiarism includes coping written work, music, spoken text and visual text from any sources.Plagiarism is not allowed in the school because the school is a place where you learn something. Everybody can copy their assignments from sources like the Internet or from someone else's work. It is very easy to get good marks this way. However, when someone plagiarizes there is no meaning in studying, doing work or learning anything (or even coming to school). You get marks on other's thoughts. This is not a good thing to do because by choosing this way of doing your homework and assignments, you do not learn anything.
I never have plagiarized in any of my classes, so I do not have much experience. I have seen many students doing this and then losing marks for copying or sometimes doing the same assignments again. I know that every teacher knows how well you write something and what kind of words you can use. If you have copied your answers from the Internet, teachers can easily know by reading it because usually Internet sources are written at high English levels and everybody writes in a different way. So, I prefer to work by myself and get marks on what I have written rather than losing marks and making a bad impression on someone.
