WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?
 Many people think of plagiarism as
copying another's work or borrowing
someone else's original ideas. But terms
like "copying" and "borrowing" can
disguise the seriousness of the offense:
1. to steal and pass off (the ideas or words
of another) as one's own
2. to use (another's production) without
crediting the source
3. to commit literary theft
4. to present as new and original an idea or
product derived from an existing source
CHELDY SYGACO ELUMBA-
PABLEO,MPA;LlB

 PLAGIARISM is
an act of fraud. It
involves both
stealing someone
else's work and
lying about it
afterward.

 According to law, the answer is
yes. The expression of original
ideas is considered intellectual
property and is protected by
copyright laws, just like original
inventions. Almost all forms of
expression fall under copyright
protection as long as they are
recorded in some way (such as a
book or a computer file).

 turning in someone else's work as
your own
 copying words or ideas from someone
else without giving credit
 failing to put a quotation in quotation
marks
 giving incorrect information about the
source of a quotation

 changing words but copying the
sentence structure of a source
without giving credit
 copying so many words or ideas
from a source that it makes up
the majority of your work,
whether you give credit or not (
"fair use" rules)

 Most cases of plagiarism can be
avoided, however, by citing
sources. Simply acknowledging
that certain material has been
borrowed and providing your
audience with the information
necessary to find that source is
usually enough to prevent
plagiarism.

 Using an image, video or
piece of music in a work
you have produced
without receiving proper
permission or providing
appropriate citation is
plagiarism.

 DESPITE THEIR POPULARITY,
THEY STILL COUNT AS
PLAGIARISM:
 Copying media (especially
images) from other websites to
paste them into your own papers
or websites.
 Making a video using footage
from others’ videos or using
copyrighted music as part of the
soundtrack.

 Performing another
person’s copyrighted
music (i.e., playing a
cover).
 Composing a piece of
music that borrows
heavily from another
composition.

 A photograph or scan of a
copyrighted image (for
example: using a photograph
of a book cover to represent
that book on one’s website)
 Recording audio or video in
which copyrighted music or
video is playing in the
background.

 Re-creating a visual work in the
same medium. (for example:
shooting a photograph that uses
the same composition and subject
matter as someone else’s
photograph)
 Re-creating a visual work in a
different medium (for example:
making a painting that closely
resembles another person’s
photograph).

 Re-mixing or altering
copyrighted images,
video or audio, even if
done so in an original
way

 The legality of these situations,
and others, would be dependent
upon the intent and context
within which they are
produced. The two safest
approaches to take in regards to
these situations is:
1) Avoid them altogether
2) Confirm the works’ usage
permissions and cite them
properly. CHELDY SYGACO ELUMBA-PABLEO,MPA;LlB

 Libel is a method of defamation
expressed by print, writing,
pictures, signs, effigies, or any
communication embodied in
physical form that is injurious to
a person's reputation, exposes a
person to public hatred, contempt
or ridicule, or injures a person in
his business or profession.

 Libel, which comes from the Latin
libellus, or “little book,” came into
fashion with the advent of the printing
press. CHELDY SYGACO ELUMBA-PABLEO,MPA;LlB

but if it is spoken, it
needs to be spoken in
some permanent and
recorded form, such as
on a television
broadcast.

 It must have published defamatory
information. "Publication" includes
books, newspapers, and magazines. It
also includes oral remarks.
 A streaming audio clip on the Internet
may be considered a publication in this
context. So long as the person to whom

malicious act of spreading
untrue statements about
someone or something else,
