A student copied questions on homeless people off of a
website but he did not give credit to anyone because he did not know who to
give credit to. Some students have copied information off the internet but did
not give credit to anyone because they thought the knowledge was commonsense. A
good example of why the students tend to copy and paste without giving credit
is because they don’t have the physical article or book in their hands. They
assume that because anyone has the rights to it, then there is no need for
giving credit. In the video of Obama and Hillary, Obama says that a friend gave
him words that he could use in his speech. Obama did not give credit because he
said he was told to say it. This goes with the information online. Students who
copy only a little don’t think to give credit because it would be silly for
something so small.
