Plagiarism is a process where an individual imitates of directly copies the views and thoughts of another person without the owner's knowledge and agreement and then present it as their own done task. There are various types of plagiarism that include complete plagiarism whereby an individual imitate the whole article, partial piracy and lazy plagiarism among others. Therefore this paper explores the multiple ways one can avoid plagiarism.[1]
First and foremost, an individual is required to take their time seriously since most plagiarism cases occur due to approaching deadline hence needs to rid of a particular article. A writer is required to schedule adequate time for writing to avoid deadline rushing. Proper time planning enables one to proofread and edit the article before submitting, and in this way, one prevents plagiarism.
It is important to note all the resources one uses in writing an article. At some time, it is essential to include the link used in an individual's report to keep track of the resources employed. Reading more than just one support is also a necessary way of getting learned and avoiding imitation during article writing. Copying occurs when individuals limit themselves to one resource, and therefore it is important to be diverse with the resources to use. [2] The diversion can only be achieved when one reads broadly.
Paraphrasing is an essential way of eliminating imitation. Paraphrasing is done by rewriting an article researched in your own words. Changing the language through paraphrasing help, one avoids a replica of the original resource. Checking if your report contains plagiarism helps prevent imitation. This is done by running it through a regulator.[3]
The regulator compares your written article with any other available items from the web to tell whether your article contains any similarities.
