Is the student text plagiarized?

is it not plagiarized
or yes because it fails to use quotation marks.

Answer 1

Answer:

not plagiarized

Explanation:

It would be considered plagiarized if the student just copied a portion of the article word for word without either quoting it, including credit or works cited page. Since she included the author's name and the article name, she is citing the author and their work, therefor she isn't plagiarizing.
