[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd take the suggestion about copying some of into to a google search and see what comes up. Hate for you to fight to only find out your son did cheat.[/quote] It's not necessarily cheating if it does flag something. Like I said, it's very hard to paraphrase once you've read something, and it's not like the kids are using their own actual research -- by research, we mean they are using the work of others.[/quote] Even if you paraphrase, you have to cite the owner of the idea. That's what plagiarism is: Stealing someone's words or ideas. It's not just the verbatim reproduction of wording. The easiest way to avoid the plagiarism charge is just to attribute. [/quote]
