Plagiarism is the act of presenting someone else's work as your own. It is a form of dishonesty--a form of cheating, in fact--and will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Plagiarism is not limited to using another person's exact words; using someone else's ideas without attribution is also a form of plagiarism.
The amount you plagiarize doesn't matter: cheating is cheating. The good news about plagiarism is that it is easily avoided by clearly citing your sources. If you do, you can safely sidestep even the hint of improper usage of someone else's work. Any student found to have plagiarized on any assignment will not be permitted to pass the course.
If you have any questions about plagiarism, do not hesitate to ask.

If I didn’t tell you that, then this would be plagiarized!
