Response 2: Plagiarism

I learned a lot more from this lecture then I thought I would at first. Everyone has a basic idea of what plagiarism is, but you rarely stop and think, huh is this plagiarism in your daily life. But now being a manual student, it is important for one to ask such questions. With manuals academic honor code, not only was the entire message of this lecture was extremely important, the lecture itself was very informative about the laws and rules behind plagiarism. I found it extremely helpful and knew that it would come in handy in future years if I ever decided to do anything...questionable, all I would have to do is consult with my notes and see if it was plagiarism or not. The most important thing that I found in this lecture though, was the section on PowerPoints and pictures in them, mainly because I was not entirely aware of the issues surrounding them. Overall it was very helpful to learn about.
