Skill 5.3 Copycat

This activity, produced by Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme, challenges students to consider what plagiarism is and why it is wrong. Students are shown that plagiarism is passing off somebody else’s work as their own. It can include getting another person to write their work, cutting and pasting from the internet or incorrectly referencing information in their work. In this activity, students will consider: * why plagiarism is wrong * ways to combat ‘accidental’ plagiarism * recognise signs of plagiarism.
