Plagarism

May 7, 2008 msgoodsell

The recently article on plagarism was definitely a great resource for me. The strategies that are presented gave me a great understanding of how to help students avoid being dishonest. I never really tried to breakdown why someone would cheat. I always just looked at it as a cat and mouse game. The truth of the matter is most students aren’t really trying to plagiarize and giving them a criteria to follow will help avoid the situation all together. That is a proactive way to handle the situation in my opinion. For the students who are really trying to cheat setting a criteria is a great way to prevent the temptation. As educators we commit ourselves to being lifelong learners and that means keeping ourselves updated with the latest techniques that technology provides to assist students with teaching and what technology we can use to prevent that from happening.
