How I learned......

I am an intrapersonal, kinaesthetic and linguistic learner.I learn best by myself or with a partner but I can still learn in groups. I like to do hands-on things like doing experiment and learn well through them.I also like new challenges as they will push me ahead.

plagarism

The first handout that my language arts teacher gave me is on plagarism.Plagarism is the illegal act of copying other people's work without giving the original person any form of credit.This action infringe copyright and the person copying the work may be fined,jailed or both.

Plagarism is common among all ages,especially among students.There are a many reasons on why they plagarise.Below are a few reasons.

1)Students are too young to know the consequences for plagarism.

2)Students think that they need to plagarise to get good grades. (Some of them think that all good ideas are already discovered.)

3)Students are influenced by their friends to think that plagarising is "the best way" of completing homework, and also the fastest way.(so they have more time to play!!!)

Personally, I think that plagarising is unfair to the original person,as someone stole his property in the form of knowledge.The original idea was formed from the person's hard work,so, how could other people use the idea without giving him credit!
