The Long Eighteenth

The Plagiarism Talk

March 1, 2007 · 14 Comments

I’ve been asked to do a brief presentation for our grad TAs regarding plagiarism: how to detect it, how to handle it (procedurally), and how to respond to it in one’s own teaching.  Since we have a mix of people out there who read the Long Eighteenth, I thought I’d ask you all what kinds of things you think would be useful for a beginning teacher to know about plagiarism.  Any tips you’d like to share?  Any approaches that you have found to work, or not work, in your own teaching?  Any detection strategies that you think would be helpful for TAs out there?  Any contributions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

 DM
