Giving Credit For Information
You Have Found In Your Research
When you are given a research project, you
must give credit for any information you find that you did not already know.
This is citing a source and usually takes the form of a bibliography.
If you do not give credit to the person or persons who provided you with the
information you are stealing that work. This is called plagarism and it
is against the law.
