Detecting and Preventing Plagiarism
Conversation on Information Literacy
Student Presentation:
- Plagiarism presentation for students (I use this with many first-year courses)
Links and Resources:
Academic Integrity and Plagiarism Resources; University Teaching Development Centre, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
- Particularly useful is the Plagiarism detection checklist under "Detecting Plagiarism."
- Also helpful: "Useful web sites for further reading"
- Yes, it looks like it was made in 1997; yes it has ads sprinkled throughout; however, the information within is actually quality and up-to-date
- Headers within are: Strategies of Awareness, Strategies of Prevention, Strategies of Detection
- Not only does the OWL provide awesome citation examples, it also has a section on plagiarism: Overview (intentional and unintentional plagiarism, challenges), Is It Plagiarism? (When is credit given? When is something considered common knowledge?), Safe Practices (best practices for students as they write), Plagiarism Exercise (identifying proper and improper use), Best Practices for Teachers (outlining course policy)
Cheating 101: Internet Paper Mills; Coastal Carolina University, Conway, SC
- A list of over 250 websites students may access in order to cheat
- Tutorial that gives an overview of plagiarism, examples, allows students to practice, and has a test students may take
