Slightly more students plagiarize by copying uncited text in a print publication than they do for copy on an Internet source, according to a new infographic from the University of Illinois at Chicago.

The infographic explains the ten most common forms of plagiarism, and strives to show people what they can do to avoid committing this form of cheating.
