plagiarism

I learned about plagiarism at a young age i think it was brought to my attention around middle school. my basic knowledge is when you takes someone else work and call it your own. many people do not know what is consider plagiarism. to list a couple there is the copying word for word and calling it your own work. or the other way of simply switching out a couple of words and calling it your own work. many do not know that you can use the copy paste method its just the fact that you have to cite and give credit where credit is due.  many do not realize it but plagiarism is simply stealing even though many do not think they are doing something wrong they are i feel that one of the ways we can stop plagiarism is that computers are built to where if someone is copying a document it required that the citation goes along with it before leaving the page. or we need to learn more about all the steps on how to cite a page and what  are all the different types of plagiarism at a younger age i think those two methods would slow down or even stop plagiarism all together    word count:206
