After this weeks assignment, I can see how people can accidentally plagiarize. I have definitely done that before. Properly siting their sources will definitely help that, and when in doubt, I have learned, site the source.
Another form of plagiarism, and also academic integrity, as well as copy right, is when you buy papers online. You are knowingly trying to pass another person's work off as your own. Sometimes people think that because they buy them, it's theirs, but it is still not your work. It's a really horrible way to hurt your career as a student, so I hope people think about what they are doing and try to make the right decisions.
Copy right is something I never really thought of while working on my classes. I never realized that when I build a project and I may copy something off of the internet, without the company's permission it's copy right infringement. As well as watching a movie in class for the purpose of learning, is copyright if again, without the company's permission.
I will definitely be double checking my work in the future to make sure I am not making any of these mistakes, because I care about academic integrity, as well as my career as a student.
