What did the student do wrong? What could he/she have done to include the source correctly?
The student plagiarized someone elses writing! They just copy and pasted someones work and called it their own without even citing any sources as to where they got it from. The student could have used the work they took from someone else as a quote, and then cited the website they got it from or who wrote it in the first place.
Write a sentence using the original source correctly; use a quotation or paraphrase.
"There is a peaceful essence flowing from the structures. Perhaps the cool dark colors and the fiery windows spark memories of our own warm childhood years filled with imagination of what exists in the night and dark starry skies. The center point of the town is the tall steeple of the church, reigning largely over the smaller buildings. This steeple casts down a sense of stability onto the town, and also creates a sense of size and seclusion.To the left of the painting there is a massive dark structure that develops an even greater sense of size and isolation."

What are at least three ways to avoid plagiarism?
1. Make sure you cite all sources if you took writing from someone else
2. Don't try to copy other people's work in the first place
3. Type what you wrote in a search box and check if it was used by someone else already
