Я больше чем уверен что под плогиат можно подогнать половину студентов, если захотеть. Даже любого человека или президента USA.
Вот длинное определение:
What is Plagiarism?
Source: Bachelor's Degree Planbook, College of Arts and Sciences,
One of the most common forms of cheating is plagiarism, using another's words or ideas without
proper citation. When students plagiarize, they usually do so in one of the following six ways:
1. Using another writer's words without proper citation. If you use another writer's words, you
must place quotation marks around the quoted material and include a footnote or other
indication of the source of the quotation.
2. Using another writer's ideas without proper citation. When you use another author's ideas, you
must indicate with footnotes or other means where this information can be found. Your
instructors want to know which ideas and judgments are yours and which you arrived at by
consulting other sources. Even if you arrived at the same judgment on your own, you need to
acknowledge that the writer you consulted also came up with the idea.
3. Citing your source but reproducing the exact words of a printed source without quotation marks.
This makes it appear that you have paraphrased rather than borrowed the author's exact words.
4. Borrowing the structure of another author's phrases or sentences without crediting the author
from whom it came. This kind of plagiarism usually occurs out of laziness: it is easier to
replicate another writer's style than to think about what you have read and then put it in your
own words. *For example:
Original: If the existence of a signing ape was unsettling for linguists, it was also startling news
for animal behaviorists.
Unacceptable borrowing of words: An ape who knew sign language unsettled linguists and
startled animal behaviorists.
Unacceptable borrowing of sentence structure: If the presence of a sign-language-using chimp
was disturbing for scientists studying language, it was also surprising to scientists studying
animal behavior.
Acceptable paraphrase: When they learned of an ape's ability to use sign language, both
linguists and animal behaviorists were taken by surprise.
5. Borrowing all or part of another student's paper or using someone else's outline to write your
own paper.
6. Using a paper writing "service" or having a friend write the paper for you. Regardless of
whether you pay a stranger or have a friend do it, it is a breach of academic honesty to hand in
work that is not your own or to use parts of another student's paper. (Note from College of
Engineering: it's also plagiarism to write a paper and have someone else make substantive
changes for you.)
