  11. Plagiarism

  12. Plagiarism is • The use of someone else’s ideas without giving credit to them. • Example: The bottlenose dolphin gets its name from the shape of its snout--something like an old hand-blown bottle. There are several different species in the world, but the best known of all is the bottlenose of the Atlantic Ocean. It is the one that is most often seen in large sea aquariums. Because it lives well in captivity, it has been studied more than any other small whale.

  13. Paraphrasing is • putting someone else’s ideas into your own words • But you still must give credit to that person. • According to Grolier Online in an article called “dolphins.” There are several different kinds of bottlenose dolphins, but most people know the bottlenose dolphin of the Atlantic Ocean because it is seen in aquariums at zoos. It is easier to study than any other small whale. It gets its name from its snout or nose. It is shaped like a bottle.

  14. Another note • It is important to note that simply changing a few words here and there or mixing up a sentence or two is not enough to constitute paraphrasing. You must truly put the information into your own words and orders.

  15. Directly Quoting • is using someone else’s ideas word for word and putting it in quotes “” • But you still must give credit to them. • No more than 150 words can be used this way. • According to Grolier Online in an article called “dolphins.” “The bottlenose dolphin gets its name from the shape of its snout--[something] like an old hand-blown bottle. There are several different species [in the world], but the best known of all is the bottlenose of the Atlantic Ocean. It is the one that is most often seen in large sea aquariums. Because it lives well in captivity, it has been studied more than any other small whale.”

  16. Source Count • Does a source count if you do not use it in the speech? • NO. A source does not count if you do not actually use the information in the speech and cite the source.
