Plagiarism Description:
Plagiarism can take different appearances in different fields of academic study, but it always comes down to not appropriately and accurately identifying a source every time information from the source appears.
For a case study of plagiarism in the field of computer science, read the following article:
Pedersen, T. (2001, April 19). A plagiarism case study. The University of Minnesota Duluth.
After you read Pedersen’s case study, complete the following in your initial discussion post:
