What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is: taking the work of someone else and using it as if it is your own (Plagiarism.org, 2017). So it is actually a kind of theft, whether you do it consciously or not. Make a clear difference between which ideas are yours and which ideas are from others. If you use someone else's text (or images), you have to indicate where you got it from. This is how you prevent plagiarism.

Note: If you have been guilty of plagiarism, your submission will be declared invalid. In more serious cases, it is also possible that you are not allowed to take part in tests for a certain period of time. In very serious offenses you can even be removed from your programme. Do not take it too lightly!
