Plagiarism Lines Blur Précis
10 September 2012
In the article “Plagiarism Lines
Blur For Students in Digital Age” (2010), Trip Gabriel introduces the idea that
the growth of the digital age has blurred the lines of plagiarism due to the
fact that students don’t grasp that using worlds that they didn’t write is a
serious crime. Gabriel supports these ideas by demonstrating several cases in
which plagiarism has played a huge part in several scenarios in which declaring
work as plagiarism is difficult due to the fact that there is so little premises
to base an argument off of. His purpose is to inform people of the seriousness
of plagiarism in order to persuade readers to stop plagiarism entirely or at least
help support the idea that there are no right reasons to copy other people’s
work. His audience is a base of writers that wish to learn about the causes and
punishments of being involved with plagiarism and become more aware on the
positive aspects of steering clear of copying others work.
