Plagiarism

To make a long story short-my sweet, innocent freshmen were becoming friends with Sparky and Shmoopie.  Ahhh, teachable moments.  I found these two resources, spent a whole period in the lab using them, and they took the quiz.  I told them the quiz will travel with their writing folder for three years, so they can never say they don't know what plagiarism is.  They seemed to like the tutorials-very kid friendly-many sound effects!  All together it takes about 40 minutes.

  1. Brilliant! I need to do this with my sophs--I've never had so many cases of plagiarism as I've had this year!
