Plagiarism is a form of stealing- stealing someone else's work, research, or findings and acting as if it belongs to you.
When you write papers or create presentations, you must create a brand new document of your own efforts.
If you copy someone else's work, you are stealing and disrespecting their work, expertise, and efforts, not to mention taking credit for it.
As a student, you violate your academic integrity if you plagiarize, affecting your standing. It can become a legal issue, as well.
Copying and pasting pieces of a book, article, or someone else's homework is plagiarism, especially if you fail to cite your source.
Rewriting someone else's work, even in your own words, is also plagiarism.
When you perform research, draw your own conclusions and then put them into your own words.
Also, always cite the source of the work from which you are drawing these new conclusions!
