Plagiarism
The health care career paper is to be the student’s original work. Plagiarism is the improper
borrowing of another person’s words, ideas, or methods. If you use another person’s material, you
must acknowledge your source. When you cite a source properly, you have given credit where it
is due, and you have also given your readers a way to locate the original material on their own.
But, there is more than that to plagiarism. Copying material directly without placing it between
quotation marks, even if you provide the source, is an act of plagiarism.
