How to Avoid Plagiarism
- Submit a draft version of your written work prior to the deadline in order to see a preview of the Originality Report. The report will take several minutes to process after your submission so you may have to come back to view it later.
- You can access the Originality Report by clicking on the Similarity link next to your submitted text or file in the Grading Summary below. The Similarity link will appear about 5 minutes after your submission and will show an initial originality percentage.
- After reviewing the Originality Report, revise any content in your writing that is seen as a direct copy from other sources, as shown in the Originality Report.
- To reduce the chances for plagiarism, always add quotation marks around any words that you have copied from other sources and include a properly formatted reference to those sources within the text of your paper, as well as on a References page.
- To completely avoid any potential for plagiarism, rewrite the content using your own words to paraphrase it rather than directly quoting it.
- In either case, always cite your sources within the text and on the References page, whether you directly quote or paraphrase someone else’s writing
