Why do I need to cite my sources?
*Using other people's words, ideas, or creative work without giving them credit is a type of STEALING called plagiarism. Consequences of plagiarism can range from failure on an assignment or for an entire course or even expulsion from school to lawsuits.
*Citing your sources gives your work credibility. The information you share is more believable when we know where you got it and we know you didn't just "make it up."
