How is rewriting a paragraph different from plagiarizing?

Rewriting a paragraph means thoughtfully rephrasing it in your own words to keep the original idea but with a new expression. Rewriting requires comprehension and creativity, and when done correctly, includes citations. Plagiarism involves taking a paragraph without giving credit and presenting it as your own work.
