SECTION 1

Defining issue

Plagiarism: Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thought, idea or expression" and the representations of them as one's own original works. In simple words, it can be said that it is the work done by any third party with use of published languages or words and represent that work as original (Kendall and Campanario, 2016). Here are some elements which are considered as plagiarism work given below:

• Turning or submitting someone else’s work as own.
• Copying ideas, work, language or credit of someone else without giving the credit.
• Fail to put a quotation in quotations mark.
• Copying the sentence structure and source and changing words as well.
• Copying so many words from any kind of source which makes the majority of work whether the credit is given or not is considered as plagiarism work effectively.  

There are so many cases in which the plagiarism work can be avoided by citing sources. In simple words the words taken from the sources and publishers articles or any other book can be acknowledged by borrowing and providing audience information about important facts to give source which is enough to prevent plagiarism. Using music, image or video in work without providing proper permission and appropriate citations is also considered as plagiarism work. Performing any other person copyright music, image or work is also a plagiarism. Mixing heavy part of any other author or musician words or music in own music or book is also plagiarism. It can be considered as an act of fraud which involves stealing of contents, words, music, files or language used by any other before (Bryman and Bell, 2015). It can be said that it is a very serious issue that plagiarism work is not approved by any kind of business, university or any other institution. Instead of that, punishments are allowed to the plagiarised work as it has a great negative impact on learners, learning skills and knowledge which affect the active engagement as well as learning effectively and efficiently.

Other than this privacy and confidentiality of informants is also one of the major issue which is been faced by researchers at the time when they are doing research. This would be regarded to as all informants who are been included within research like participants and respondents information need to be kept in secret and their documents or related to their identity should not be disclosed. This is very much important for the point of view of informants if their identity is been revealed then it would not be good or against the ethics.
