First, lets start with a question based on your experiences and/or opinion:
1. Does learning that something has been plagiarized change its validity or change the value of what has been written? Would it make you less likely to use that information in your own work or study? Please feel free to share examples from media coverage.
Integrating what youve learned from the readings, viewings, and your experience, lets move to the next question.
2. What makes plagiarism so easy, so tempting and so dangerous?
3. As an educational institution, we grapple with plagiarism all the time. Some of it is unintentional or accidental, and some is deliberate. As a college, what should we do with these situations? Should there be a no-tolerance policy, or another type of policy?
4. As a student, what additional information do you need, or would be helpful to know, regarding plagiarism?
