An excerpt from page 219 of the book, Off to See the Wizard: A Biography of Alan Moore by Jonah Sinnott: "It was on his fortieth

birthday that the famed comic book retiree decided to make an announcement that rocked the world of comics publishing: "I will no longer be writing comic books," said Alan Moore in one of his typically cryptic public statements, "I am retiring to become a full-time magician. Specifically, I have been converted to the religion of Glycon the Serpent God and want to pursue new avenues of knowledge that have been opened up to me recently through some intense, supernatural experiences." Needless to say, publishers were not ecstatic at this puzzling news." Which excerpt from a student essay below is an example of plagiarism?
A) Alan Moore claimed that he was giving up writing for comics because he had been converted to religion of a serpent god called Glycon.

B) Writer Jonah Sinnott quoted Moore's retirement announcement that claimed Moore was leaving comics not to rest but to become a "magician" (219).

C) Much to the comic book publishing world's astonishment, Moore announced he was leaving writing comics to "become a full time magician" (Sinnott 219).

D) Alan Moore decided upon his fortieth birthday to give up writing comics and pursue a body of knowledge of more interest to him: magic (Sinnott 219).

<em>Which excerpt from a student essay below is an example of plagiarism?  </em>

<em>The answer is A</em>

<em>A) Alan Moore claimed that he was giving up writing for comics because he had been converted to religion of a serpent god called Glycon. </em>

<em>This sentence is an example of plagiarism because the student does not use quotation marks or does not make any reference to the book or the page he got if from. In the way the student is using this information, it appears as if he had heard Alan Moore directly claiming this information and not from the book “Off to See the Wizard”. It is a common mistake when a student does not have proper strategies or tools to retain the information he or she considers relevant to cite from a source. There are pages, applications and programs that can do this work while we are reading material that we will have to cite in the text we are creating.</em>

The answer is A). The excerpt "Alan Moore claimed that he was giving up writing for comics because he had been converted to religion of a serpent god called Glycon" is an example of plagiarism.

This excerpt from a student essay presents the same information that provides the book<em> Off to See the Wizard: A Biography of Alan Moore </em>by Jonah Sinnott. Furthermore, the author of this excerpt does not quote Sinnott nor adds the page number of his book. That is to say, the author takes Sinott's words and presents it as if they were his/her own words. In order to give credit to the real author, the writer of the excerpt should have named the source or added the page number as it has been done in the excerpts from options B), C) and D).
