The seminar I went to discussed a Plagiarism Tutorial, a module which was put on the university's website, and subsequently on many of the departments' own web pages. It includes a pre-test, "is this plagiarism?', then content explaining the whole issue, and then quizzes you can take to test yourself. We were all given a sample question and asked to determine if the writing was an acceptable paraphrase, or patchwriting. Most of us did get the right answer, but there weren't many of us that we really sure. Pretty eye-opening. The idea came about as part of a motion to work with "education rather than policing" in regards to plagiarism. They are also sample exam banks, and sample essays. It was felt that one of the reasons for plagiarism was quite simply, lack of knowledge. Both in regards to what consitutes plagiarism, but also as to expectations. They also are including a 'tutor checklist', i.e. how to find a tutor, but also what a tutor should do for you, and what they should not. I got the impression a lot of universities are doing this now. |
