Hope you enjoy my portfolio, and I hope you learn from my writing experience!

When I submitted my assignment to the plagiarism catcher, I only plagiarized four percent because my sentence was too closely worded to the actual sentence in the article. The plagiarism catcher missed one of my sentences where I quoted the author, but forgot to cite it. It didn’t highlight anything that wasn’t plagiarized material. Because I didn’t remember that paraphrasing is supposed to be cited, the plagiarism catcher failed to catch that. I think this tool does bring up ethical concerns because it helps me understand using someone else’s words as my own is considered an offense. With this tool, teachers can help students understand that plagiarism is wrong.
