 * Ctrl C- using chunks of unchanged information without citation
 * Find Replace- using some different words of your own but keeping the same idea that is not yours
 * Remix- using information from several different sources that are made to fit together
 * Recycle- using your own previous work without citation
 * Hybrid- you have some perfectly cited material along with information that is not cited at all
 * Mashup- the use of copied material from several sources
 * 404 Error- when your information includes citations to non-existent or inaccurate information about the sources
 * Aggregator- includes proper citation to used sources but contains almost no original work or information
 * Re-tweet- information is cited properly but it relies too heavily on the original text
 * Strategies
 * Paraphrase- read information and put it into your own words. Double check to make sure you do not copy anything word for word for more than two words in a row
