Which of the following is true for the Student Version above? Word-for-Word plagiarism Paraphrasing plagiarism This is not plagiarism

Answer 1

There are essentially two ways in which plagiarism can be performed - Word-for-Word and Paraphrasing. Word-for-word plagiarism requires one to exactly copy and paste the words and sentences of the source author. While paraphrasing plagiarism is committed when the writer tries to summarize the idea taken from some other source and fails both to cite the references as well as the author(s).

You can notice that, in this case, the student tries to summarize the original work of the author and also mentioned the references. Although a reference is provided at the end, there is no in-text citation to link the written paragraph to the specific reference. For avoiding the paraphrasing plagiarism, one must also mention in-text citation. Thus, this would be considered as paraphrasing plagiarism.
