440. Types of Plagiarism: More Than Meets the Eye

On this Teach Me Something Tuesday episode of the Healthcare Education Transformation Podcast, Dr. F. Scott Feil kicks off a three-part series on a critical topic in academia: plagiarism. The series aims to provide insights for both professors and students. In this first part, Dr. Feil defines plagiarism and explores its various forms, shedding light on some lesser-known types. From complete plagiarism to accidental plagiarism, this episode is a comprehensive guide to understanding and recognizing plagiarism. Stay tuned for the upcoming episodes where we delve into consequences and best practices to avoid plagiarism.

Key Takeaways:

Different Kinds of Copying: Dr. F. Scott Feil talks about how plagiarism can be like copying in big or small ways. It's important to know these to write honestly.

Copying Your Own Work: Did you know you can even copy your own old work? This can cause problems, especially in serious writing jobs.

Tricky Mixing: Some plagiarism mixes copied parts smoothly into a paper. It's hard to spot, so it's super important to give credit where it's due.

Getting Sources Right: Dr. Feil tells us that sometimes people get confused about where information comes from. Getting this right is a big part of fair writing.

Accidental Copying Happens: Sometimes, writers don't mean to copy, but it still happens. Dr. Feil reminds us to always say where we got our information and use quotation marks when needed.

If you're a PT and you have student loan debt, you gotta talk to these guys. What makes them unique is that they view financial planning as like running hurdles on a track. And for PTs, the first hurdle many of us run into is student loan debt. Varela Financial will help you get over that hurdle. They not only take the time to explain to you which plans you individually qualify for and how those plans work, but they ALSO take the time to show you what YOUR individual case looks like mapped out within each option.
