  10. Dear Mr. G,
    Plagiarism: Plagiarism to me is the event that takes places in which someone is required or chooses to give information that they had taken from someone else and tried to pass off as their own.
    Example: Little sally sings a song that only Billy hears then sings it for the talent show word for word and says that he made it up himself. Not OK!
    I read this in a Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy that I thought was interesting;
    Common knowledge is a phenomenon which underwrites much of social life. In order to communicate or otherwise coordinate their behavior successfully, individuals typically require mutual or common understandings or background knowledge. Indeed, if a particular interaction results in “failure”, the usual explanation for this is that the agents involved did not have the common knowledge that would have resulted in success. If a married couple is separated in a department store, they stand a good chance of finding one another because their common knowledge of each others' tastes and experiences leads them each to look for the other in a part of the store both know that both would tend to frequent. Since the spouses both love cappuccino, each expects the other to go to the coffee bar, and they find one another. But in a less happy case, if a pedestrian causes a minor traffic jam by crossing against a red light, she explains her mistake as the result of her not noticing, and therefore not knowing, the status of the traffic signal that all the motorists knew. The spouses coordinate successfully given their common knowledge, while the pedestrian and the motorists miscoordinate as the result of a breakdown in common knowledge.
