A bright-line test is to ask, “Is this mine? Did I make this, or did I receive this?” As a fundamental commandment, “Thou shalt not steal” (Exodus 20:15), we ambassadors for Christ should take issues of academic ownership as seriously as we do physical, material ownership. You should not copy and paste sentences or even phrases and call it yours. Even if you are summarizing someone else’s ideas, they should receive credit. If it’s unclear to you, asking for advice from parents and coaches is always wise.
