Writing Homework Help

Plagiarism can take different appearances in different fields of academic study, but it always comes down to not appropriately and accurately identifying a source every time information from the source appears.

For a case study of plagiarism in the field of computer science, read the following article:

Pedersen, T. (2001, April 19). A plagiarism case study (Links to an external site.). https://www.d.umn.edu/~tpederse/Docs/A-Plagiarism-…

After you read Pedersen’s case study, complete the following in your initial discussion post:

1. Create your own example of plagiarism
2. Provide an example of a way to cite the source properly
3. Devise the punishment that you think is appropriate for the plagiarism example you created. Write a paragraph explaining how this punishment would be implemented.

If you cite outside sources, please do so in APA format using the CSU Global Standards:
