Lessons Learned - Plagiarism, Proper Citations, Paraphrasing A student obtaining a Masters Degree in Information Systems is especially helped by a thorough knowledge of plagiarism, proper citations and paraphrasing. Plagiarism, which is using the thoughts and words of another as your own without giving credit to the original author, is a widespread problem that can affect any student. Knowledge about plagiarism is important to all students but is particularly important to Information Systems that have and will continue to develop systems for detecting and avoiding plagiarism. As the many studies on plagiarism have shown, plagiarism cheats the original author, cheats the student who is plagiarizing and cheats the education and business systems who must rely on the integrity and capability of individuals. Proper citation, which is attributing a passage or thought to another writer and doing so in a commonly accepted form, is important to any student and particularly important to a student obtaining a Masters in Information Systems: integrity and proper credit where credit is due are important mainstays of dealing globally in hardware and software; in addition, in dealing with other educated people, the Masters student and eventual Information Systems professional must deal effectively with other educated people and must deal with them knowledgeably; also, the global nature of Information Systems means that there is a pressing demand for state-of-the-art hardware and software that can detect, recognize and produce proper citations. As the globe continues to "shrink" with information systems stretching across the earth, a professional dealing in information systems must have state-of-the-art knowledge about properly citing in order to develop effective hardware and software, and capably deal with knowledgeable people worldwide. Finally, paraphrasing, which is rewording a passage or thought from another writer, is important for all students and particularly for a student obtaining a Masters in Information Systems. While knowledge about plagiarism, proper citation and paraphrasing are all important, paraphrasing may be the most important aspect for a student obtaining a Masters Degree in Information systems: it increases the "tool kit" of knowledge by forcing the student to comprehend and more clearly state whatever thoughts he/she might encounter from another author; it builds a solid education with little or no gaps as each phase of learning builds on the state of learning that went before it; it helps the student and eventually the professional in Information Systems recognize and avoid plagiarism, which has become a serious problem for both the education and business communities. In sum, a thorough knowledge of plagiarism, proper citation and paraphrasing is essential for any student and particularly for a student obtaining a Masters in Information Systems.
