What is plagiarism?
Derived from the Latin word for ‘kidnapper’ (plagiarus), the simplest definition of plagiarism is when someone passes off the words of another person as their own. Plagiarism can also happen when someone uses another’s ideas or arguments while preserving the structure in which they were presented.
Some plagiarism is blatant – a direct copying of whole passages of text – while in other cases it can be more subtle and involve the paraphrasing of words or sentences within a body of otherwise original work. A more sophisticated form of plagiarism is self-plagiarism, where a student re-uses their own work. Plagiarism is not the same as the accidental use of an original phrase or term, which is a common, usually unconscious form of borrowing.

Most children's introduction to the online world is via video-sharing platforms like YouTube, while social media begins to appeal as they approach their teenage years. While these platforms are undoubtedly entertaining and engaging, they can also be highly addictive and expose young people to a variety of other online risks. Our short video, presented by Myleene Klass, will quickly raise your awareness of online platforms and how children and young people use them.
Internet-enabled devices are almost everywhere these days - from smart TVs and voice-responsive speakers to mobile devices and wearable tech. Our short video, presented by Myleene Klass, will quickly get you up to speed on the various ways that children and young people can connect with the online world.
Social media isn't reality, and what people portray on those platforms often isn't an accurate representation of their actual life or personality. That's something which even adults can forget from time to time, so it's even more likely that the boundaries between an online and offline identity can be confusing for children and young people. Presented by Myleene Klass, our short explainer video has all the essentials on online identity.
