This is the season of grading papers for us, writing papers for our students. I was surprised to find, a few semesters ago, that many of my students were not able to recognize the difference in paraphrasing and plagiarism. So, I located a few really good websites and a couple of documents that have examples of both and explain just what plagiarism really is. You are welcome to share these with your students. See the 4 links below.
