Plagiarism By Oliver and Brianna


Have you ever heard the word “Plagiarism”? Plagiarism isn’t good to do kids. Plagiarism is stealing someone’s work and claiming it’s your own. It’s wrong, and it sometimes can get you into legal trouble. Don't plagiarize: it is not worth getting a zero over stolen work on the internet.
Case in point, Coldplay was sued for plagiarism because they used beats from the song “If I Could Fly” by Joe Satriani. They were sued for stealing portions of the song. Also, Emma Cline was caught plagiarizing and was shamed for it. There are a lot of other people who have done that. According to plagiarism.org, 80% of college students cheat on tests. One third of students admit to plagiarism.
Turnitin is an online program that checks for plagiarism. It’s something that a lot of colleges use for checking students’ papers for plagiarism. You can also search some words on Google for plagiarism. In college, you can get kicked out just for stealing words off the internet for reports. Please remember it's wrong, and illegal to plagiarize. It’s not worth all the grief and heartache you will cause yourself.
