Well first of all everybody knows that you are to dumb to know all those big words you “wrote” in your paper. And second off all, everybody can see the copy right sign. If you really wrote that paper, that sign wouldn't be there.
- 5. Thank you, tha nk you very much. No! Don’t leave. Tell me what to do.
- 6. Wahhhhh!
- 7. Whoa!
- 8. Yes it is I. The amazing monkey man. I am here to talk to you about plagiarism, netiquette, and copy right. What? A monkey? Because I am awesome like that. What are you doing here ? Why?
- 9. First I ask you what is plagiarism. Well according to dictionary.com “plagiarism is the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.” You see what I did there. Even though I said exactly what dictionary.com said, I also told you where I got my information from. I still don’t understand how to avoid plagiarizing.
- 10. Here are some ways to prevent plagiarizing: Cite every piece of information that is not your own work. Use quotation marks every time you use the author's words. Make it clear that the work you are using is someone else's idea. If you fail to do this things, there will be consequences. You will receive a 0 on the project. You will probably get suspended or expelled. You are lucky you are 9 years old and not a 30 year old because if you were than you would probably get arrested. DO YOUR OWN WORK! It is not worth the trouble. Even if you copy one sentence, you will still be punished.
- 11. The next thing I am going to talk to you about is copy right. Copyright is almost the same thing as plagiarism. Copyright was made to prevent plagiarism. For instance did you know that The largest threat to the internet is copyright.(http://www.benedict.com/info/info.aspx) If you don’t want anyone to use your work or picture you can go to copyright.gov and copyright it. “You can copyrighted works such as news stories, software, novels, screenplays, graphics, pictures, even email.” (http://www.benedict.com/info/info.aspx) People copyright their work to protect their work from people how would copy and paste your work. Haaa! Flying pig.
- 12. Copyright was made to prevent people from using other people's work. “If you use a copyrighted work without permission and your usage is not exempt under copyright law, you are infringing upon the copyright holder's rights. The person who copyrighted his work might sue you for 150,000 dollars.” (http://copyright.southernct.edu/Basics/basics8.htm) You are lucky you didn’t get suspended or expelled because the place where you got your information was copyrighted so that means you can use that information as long as you cite where you got it from.
- 13. Now before I go, I would like to talk to you about one more thing. Netiquette is the rules you must follow when you communicate online. According to albion.com/netiquette/rule1.html, when communicating online you must follow the golden rule that your parents or teachers have taught you. Sigh. What is the I wonder when he golden rule? is going to leave. The golden rule say to treat Hmmm… I could another person as you really go for a taco would want him to treat right now. you. So when you communicate online make sure you don’t treat anybody with disrespect because all you see is their avatar in your screen. You can’t see how your words affect the person you are talking too. Why are you telling this to me? I don’t even have an email account. Because I can see the future, and in the future your words will hurt somebody so badly that they will commit GASP! suicide.
- 14. Never forget that the person you are talking to is a real person with feelings that can be hurt. Monkey man is out! Peace! What the? Where did the tiger come from?
- 15. Ahhhhhh!
- 16. How does he do that? Oh well time to get a taco.
