Zuri is a sophomore in college. She needed to write a paper on Shakespeare and his works. Zuri went to the library to get some of Shakespeare's books. Then, she thought of using the internet to do her research. She started looking at papers created by other people on the same topic. She also searched online for more information about Shakespeare and his life. After a few hours of searching, she was confident enough to write her paper. Intially, Zuri struggled to gather her thoughts, and couldn't figure out where to start. She spent a couple of hours trying to write something, but wasn't happy with the result. She then decided to copy content from the internet. She even used quotes and paragraphs from books about Shakespeare's literature she got from the library. Zuri was happy with the final version. She was excited that she completed the work on time, and made her submission. After a few days, she received an email from the instructor that her paper was getting a failing grade.

What mistakes did Zuri make in her paper and what can Zuri do to avoid this mistake and improve her grades?Explain using a full paragraph.

Zuri got a bad grade because she copied work from the internet ,quotes etc and the paragraphs from books. although using some evidence could be very helpful Zuri needed to include her own writing in the Shakespeare literature other than using all the redirected she had she could have also used her own thoughts.As well as that (extra) she could have stated her own opinion on the Shakespeare literature.
