That's a different issue though and has little to do with plagiarism. Based on skimming those links it doesn't seem that they absolve the student from plagiarism just because they sufficiently reshuffled the words (though again, it makes it harder to detect).


First link I clicked explicitly states that you're to cite the source.

So from what I see OP's claim is bunk: they want you to paraphrase, but doing that and citing your source isn't close to plagiarism.
