Tina Triton has a paper to write for her cognitive science class about a topic she knows very little about. Her professor has required the class to research scholarly journal articles for their papers. Tina decides to save some time and searches her topic on the Internet. Why bother with the library and journal articles when you can search from your dorm room! Tina copies and pastes information from the Web into her document. Has Tina committed plagiarism?
Incorrect. Copying and pasting from the Internet is plagiarism. Tina didn't do any of the writing, someone else did. Had Tina visited the library, she would have learned how to research scholarly journal articles directly from her dorm room! Doing research and writing papers takes time.
