Vandals of plagiarism are the bad behaviour that exists in every
industry.
On the other
hand, plagiarism means the"wrongful
appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another
author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the
representation of them as one's own original work. The idea remains problematic
with unclear definitions and unclear rules
In the industry we
have designers, inventors, innovators and creators and many else. Then
if you try to create a dominant, they often faced with the experience of 'Copied'
portfolio to the media and they do not care anymore, even in the academic, the
teachers, many of them still have pain when they see the students doing their
homework by 'COPYING & PASTING' article from the Internet. It
also can be seen more frequently in the media that some sites, copy the content
from the web to publish the manuscript then concluded that as a result of his work
The picture below shows some example on why students do plagiarize:
These stories happen
all the time in our society. So we need to question the position of the
technology, 'is it the benefits of access information already endless?”. The
bad side usually comes like two-sided coin, which seems to be the problem that cannot
be solved in the forum's website and TED.com, there is a set point for people to comment
on the issue, and one of the comments said, "To
steal ideas is actually a person with mental problems. Because
people that are intelligent in the classroom is often a to be the most beloved
among their friends and whoever does not like people who always boasted clever
and who is likely to steal the ideas of others to say the same as their own.
Misconceptions
of plagiarism
- "Plagiarist- They felt that no one knows about their doing"
This matter
still in a point of discussion, it is an endless problem. Whether it is in the classroom like
copying others homework or in work place like stealing someone’s ideas until in the social
media they also copied others content. Wonder why the popular misconception,
about stolen or 'borrowed' the contribution of others to use, it still appeared
to linger everywhere and this is not the end. We have done an observation and from
that, we have got three misconceptions
among the plagiarist in every situation.
Tools to
detect plagiarist’s
idea are a very powerful tool but it also
vulnerable to thieves to
escape from being caught. This is because 'Detection software' does not detect
plagiarist’s
idea directly, but the detection of the highlights of the text that was
written two times (depending
on the type of instrument used) usually the tool will run the software, and it will search
the text that was written from anywhere and is
highlighted. Later,
when the same word or phrase pops up in another, this software will
also be notified immediately.
- Plagiarism is a matter of proportion
But the
outcome that often occurred is the reminder will appear when the word or phrase
that is mostly used, so then the tools to detect plagiarism, still required the
ability of humans to be repeated the work of the software.
Many people
believe that plagiarism is about 'Ratio of similarity” in one of the
article, but the fact is
even if you just copied the ideas of others just 5% or 10%, it also considered as imitators. Especially, the writing in academic field such as
'research' or 'thesis' nowadays can be verified that it is copied from another
work about a few per cent.
- The rewrite was not considered a plagiarism
The
problem in this matter, when
it is referenced in academic papers has to specify clearly and accurately the
source of the content. Sometimes content with a new idea was presented as critical
thinking or synthesize it in their owned style. In academic circles, the writing is
not standardized with the 'ratio', or the 'scope' of reference is stated clearly.
Nowadays,
some people set their mind if they 'Write the new remix' of the article does
not considered as copying manuscripts. This is the easiest way to avoid
charge of plagiarism. However,
the issue of plagiarism idea is not just about we copied the content exactly,
even we write the new remix also called as plagiarism. So if you are going to
copy the work of others by using words like original, you
may also be saved from the charges, but it means that it still considered as steal other
people's ideas to be used for your own job.
In a nutshell, we can relate all
the passage above with an idiom called “Steal Someone’s Thunder” which means
someone use your ideas or inventions for their own advantage.
I will give you some tips to avoid plagiarism, look

To end my post, together we say NO
to plagiarism.
