The four common types of plagiarism are:
– Verbatim (Direct) Plagiarism: This is when someone directly copies text from a source without using quotation marks or providing appropriate citation.
– Mosaic (Patchwork) Plagiarism: This involves blending copied content from various sources, sometimes with minor word changes, presenting it as original.
– Paraphrasing Plagiarism: This is when someone rewords or paraphrases another’s content but doesn’t credit the source.
– Self Plagiarism: This occurs when someone resubmits or recycles their own previously submitted work without proper citation or permission.
