How to check Plagiarism before submitting your research Report ?
Plagiarism in simple meaning is to show another person's original work as your work without crediting/referencing the original author. This is not a new concept in Sri Lanka as most Sri Lankan students copy paste information from the internet when doing research reports for local university assignments, professional exams, etc..
Due to this reason, Sri Lankan educational institutes won't allow plagiarism on researches anymore. They will allow only a certain percentage of data when preparing reports. So you need to make sure you have provided proper references for citations when you are taking information from online resources.
Upon completing the research report, it is really hard to check for plagiarism manually.That's why we need a tool to detect plagiarism automatically. This is very useful for Sri Lankan teachers/lecturers. Also useful for Sri Lankan students to check for plagiarism before submitting research reports.
