Originality makes something better and more sensible
Originality is very important. There are times that our work is taken by another person without giving recognition to whom it really is.
Intellectual Property refers to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, symbols, names, and images used in commerce. (Source: http://www.wipo.int/about-ip/en/)
There are different intellectual properties that we should know that will help us to play safe in every situation.
An intellectual property is protected by law in order for an individual to give credit to an author or the creator of one's work. To help us learn how to give a person recognition to the effort that he or she exerted to have an amazing result of his/her work. Nowadays, it ain't easy to have an outcome with legitimate originality most especially everything is one click away from the internet.
An intellectual property protect the rights of inventors, scientists, and artists by applying it for a patent, trademark, or copyright, which would penalize and punish those who will try to steal or imitate a certain invention or concept.

For me, it is really important because I might feel bad when someone stole my idea without even asking if they can use it or not. I am the one who exerts effort to have that result and it will just be taken from me without a notice.
Plagiarism is one of the known acts that is considered as a violation of the Intellectual Property. That article or piece is owned by someone and it is just that we need to state where the source came from. To give back the time and effort of the maker of that article. As a teenager, sometimes we plagiarize from the quotations we find attractive, lyrics that we can relate to, and many more. An an individual, we forgot how to cite sources and stuff that is why to have a lesson learned there is a violation that a person can be punished because of Plagiarism and other activities that can violate the rules of Intellectual Property.
Since intellectual property is protected, there is a law for this. Republic Act No. 8293 "An Act Prescribing the Intellectual Property Code and Establishing the Intellectual Property Office, Providing for Its Powers and Functions, and for Other Purposes" or known as Intellectual Property Code.

Below is the list of agencies in-charge of implementing the Intellectual Property Code:

There are still works that are not protected by copyright. To know more about it:
Copyright law protects the expression of facts and ideas, not the ideas and facts themselves. Works that have not been fixed to a tangible medium are just ideas. Ideas are fair game for everyone to express in their own words. (Source: https://brainly.ph/question/1859108)

Your IP rights are important because they can: set your business apart from competitors. be sold or licensed, providing an important revenue stream. (Source: https://www.nibusinessinfo.co.uk/content/importance-protecting-intellectual-property)
As a student, it is permitted to use another individual's work as long as it is still not for profit. For example, it is for academic purposes. Teachers and/or faculty members are protected from being punished since there is an agreement between these stuff. I suggest to read the copyright information first because there are some creators who doesn't permit us to use their works.
