It is not plagiarism because they are doing their own paper but they are just using the same sources. This could turn into plagiarism if they decide to compare their papers and take ideas off of their actual papers.

2. 4
Although it is your own paper, you should not turn in the same paper for two different classes. The University can see that two papers that are one in the same were turned in and they may view that as plagiarism.

3.0
You are not copying their work or posting what they are saying, but you are just looking at others' posts to feel more comfortable with the assignment and better understand what you are suppose to do. If you were to actually take what they said on their posts and copy it to yours, then that would be plagiarism.

4.5
It is definitely plagiarism because you used their work and changed it enough to call it your own, even though it is their template.
