What do you know about plagiarism on the internet? How do web design, the internet and plagiarism all effect each other? Explain.

I know a lot about plagiarism on the internet! For example, in high school, us students are well known for it.  One person writes and essay, a friend asks them to email their essay to them, they copy and paste it, put their name on it, and boom, that is plagiarism! Basically, plagiarism is when you take something that doesn't belong to you and then you use it and put your name on it. Like when it comes to pictures, the owner of that picture will sometimes want you to give them credit for that photo being theirs.  Web design, the internet and plagiarism all connect together.  In web design, you could easily look over at the person next to yours computer and copy their work, post it to the internet and put your name on it.  This not only causes problems with you and that other student, but you can get your grade docked too.  Overall, plagiarism is something that you do not want to participate in! Web design, plagiarism and the internet may all seem different, but once you publicize one plagiarized thing on the internet in this class, you are putting yourself in a bad position!
