These tutorials, designed by other libraries and universities, are great interactive ways to learn about various elements of plagiarism. Each of these tutorials will take you about 10-15 minutes.
Notice that each of these tutorial is cited with the institution where I found it. Because this Research Guide is less formal than your research papers, I just gave a quick note about who wrote it. If I wrote a research paper about plagiarism, I would want to cite any tutorials I used with the author, institution, date, and title of the tutorial.
