Types of plagiarism
Most plagiarism cases on this campus seem to be of the "paraphrase" variety, in which students take stretches of 2 or more words from the source, add a few words of their own, and then end the sentence with a citation. Students often try to ply the CJC members with excuses such as "I used my computer's copy/paste feature but forgot to add quotation marks because I was in a hurry." Or they will try, "I didn't know that that constituted plagiarism." Many students invoke both simultaneously, to cover all the bases.
