Don't Copy!

You heard about TurnItIn during the FLVS webinar.  It's a tool for detecting plagiarism that FLVS teachers use.  UCF also uses TurnItIn.  Why?  Because with the web, copy and paste sometimes takes the place of original writing and critical thinking.

The TurnItIn folks recently completed a study related to plagiarism.  You can see the details in this infographic and, if interested, download the whole report.  Be sure to see the bottom with ideas for combatting this growing problem.
