The Student Thesis Company - Plagiarism
Plagiarism and how to avoid it.
Students study literature relating to their studies, but when writing an essay, thesis or dissertation, a student must include a credit in the text for a direct quote that would be shown within speech marks with the author’s name and year of publication.

Students may also refer to a published author’s findings and conclusions without quoting words exactly, so speech marks are not needed, but the author’s name and year of publication should be inserted in the text to make it clear.

Plagiarism is when students use quotations from published literature without quoting the reference as this implies the work is the student’s original findings, which could be described as cheating.
To ensure that students practice academic integrity, they need to ensure they follow the guidance provided by all universities. University supervisors are likely to use a software checking program to identify plagiarism and students may have their work returned for re-submission or it may fail.

Paraphrasing other writers’ work is acceptable and shows that the student has understood their findings and conclusions and have used these to exemplify their own studies and findings, so long as credit is given to the original author. Copying work from other sources, even with credits, does not show universities that students really understand the context of the writing. These findings need to be written in the student’s own words.

However, paraphrasing is difficult, particularly for students for whom English is not their first language. The Student Thesis Company will also paraphrase work for students, if necessary.
The Student Thesis Company can help students to reduce their plagiarism percentage to below the maximum allowed by universities.
