Abstract

In writing a thesis as a student's final project, of course students often look for references from many experts. For this reason, students usually paraphrase so that it is not considered as an act of plagiarism or labeling other people's writings as their own. Plagiarism is a criminal act for that when writing thesis students have to paraphrase, some students do it manually and some do it with the help of paraphrasing tools. This research was used to find out what are the advantages and disadvantages of the paraphrasing tool for English students who graduate in 2022. This study used a quantitative design using a questionnaire which was distributed to 23 students who had graduated and used the paraphrasing tool in writing thesis.
