2 INTRODUCTION: The Internet has made plagiarism easier than ever before. From elementary
schools to the highest levels of academia, the ease of downloading and copying untraceable
online information has led to an epidemic of digital plagiarism. Intentional or unintentional use
of another words or ideas without acknowledging this use constitutes plagiarism: There are four
common forms of plagiarism: The duplication of an author words without quotation marks and
accurate references or footnotes. The duplication of author words or phrases with footnotes or
accurate references, but without quotation marks. The use of author ideas in paraphrase without
accurate references or annotations. Submitting a paper in which exact words are merely
rearranged even though footnoted. It is illegal to plagiarize someone else work and publish it 3
