If your essay is a little under the word count, but you\u2019ve offered great arguments and evidence, you\u2019ve done your job.

When paraphrased ideas or direct quotes are used without giving credit to the author, this constitutes an act of plagiarism. Plagiarism undermines the intent and purpose of scholarship, as we lose the thread of the sources that are used to credibly substantiate an argument. You\u2019re stealing someone else\u2019s ideas and erasing their hard work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.4286em; margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 2rem; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Before engaging with the guided writing process that follows, be sure to review the Citing Sources section of Start here &#8211; Student Resources on the course home page.
