The topics that we have covered in the couple weeks each deal with library research. Plagiarism is connected to library research because while researching and trying to do a paper or assignment you don’t want to plagiarize when researching in the library. Paraphrasing correctly, and Copyright vs. Plagiarism deal with library research in a way. Paraphrasing can be important and a useful tool while researching in the library. And knowing the difference between Copyright violation and Plagiarism and knowing what they both are can help you while doing library research to stay away from them. Open Content, Open Access, & Creative Commons licenses deal with library research because if you want to know what type of license in on a particular document that can help. And blog and podcasts are self-explanatory this is where people can, and enjoy learn stuff about anything.
I can apply this knowledge to other classes to avoid getting in trouble by taking other peoples information or ideas and using it like it is mine without giving them credit. Basically these are useful topics to keep you out of trouble.
I do not really have any questions about these topics.
Your blog post gives alot of information about the ways the information can be used within library research. Your information was very helpful. This class has taught me enough information to know what is wrong and what is right in a reserach paper. Also how to cite sources and give authors credit for their work.
ReplyDeleteI am glad we went to over these topics; it was like a refresher for my brain. I know remember what not to do when it comes to my papers. I guess that going over these topics really help sharpen my brain and bring back everything to recollection. This class is very helpful.
ReplyDeleteYou got it pretty much covered and I agree plagiarism is found all throughout library research and writing is a major problem that is always occurring but can never be completely solved. I definitely could apply this to my other classes as well because the last thing I want to do is plagiarism and get kicked out of school.
