Games can make teaching and learning more fun, and learners are able to work at their own pace. Also, games are seen as a break from a lesson in which students reinforce their learning during the break.

Answer: This is not plagiarism

Explanation: Plagiarism is passing off another author's work as your own without attributing credit to the initial owner. It violates the copyright of the author and is frowned upon in academic circles.

However, this student did not plagiarize the original work as he rewrote the author's ideas in his own words and also attributed credit to the original author. So this is not a form of plagiarism.
