Getting Through College, Thanks To
Plagiarism
Getting Through College, Thanks To
Plagiarism
11/13/2003 05:25 AMThere have been plenty of stories about college kids cheating by
buying or just cutting and pasting
complete
assignments for their classes, but this BBC piece includes a quote
from someone claiming that she basically did that on
every
paper she's turned in throughout college, and is now using the same
cut-and-paste method to finish up her dissertation. Clearly, that's
an outlier example, but it does show how far people will go. The
article includes lots of quotes from people who complain about the
dumbing down of our education system that has allowed this to happen,
but I'm not sure that's the case. Kids have always cheated in school.
This just makes the process easier. Of course, what they don't
mention is that the real punishment is already being handed out to
these kids. They're attending (and in many cases paying quite a bit)
four years of college and not learning a damn thing, because all
they're doing is cutting and pasting.
How Bad Is Plagiarism At Universities?
How Bad Is Plagiarism At Universities?
06/30/2004 09:07 PMWhen you have students
suing
universities when caught plagiarizing you know that plagiarism
isn't always frowned upon by students. However, despite the scary
language used in this article, the numbers really don't seem that
ridiculous. About twenty-five percent of students
admit to
plagiarizing at some point or another (though, the article
describes this as "cheating his or her way through degrees").
Meanwhile, 97% say they know its cheating, but 17% still think it's
okay anyway. Now, it's obviously cheating, but to be honest, these
numbers don't see all that high or surprising. There are always going
to be students who cheat at one point or another. While the article
includes anecdotal stories about students who have copied material
repeatedly, the study doesn't actually address how many students
chronically cheat, and how many have just done it on occasion. I'm
not defending those who do it, but the article uses language that
would make you think that no one ever writes their own work any more,
and the numbers in the study simply don't support that.

Is
plagiarism at universities out of control? Academic
Plagiarism is a growing problem in the university world and is not
just
making headlines in the United States anymore. While some
professors are
morally
opposed, the growing popularity of professors forcing students to
submit works ahead of time to companies like
Turnitin may be an indicator of of
this growing problem. With
more and more employers complaining about the writing
skills of new hires, are we just
cheating
ourselves in the end?

Yahoo's Offers New Anti-Spyware Tool...
That Actually Finds Spyware
08/05/2004 03:50 AMIt appears that Yahoo heard the backlash loud and clear a few months
back when they released an anti-spyware tool that
just so
happened to skip over adware from Yahoo partners. The latest
version, built on PestPatrol's technology will now
default to
notifying users of both "spyware" and what they consider to be
"adware" and then give the user the choice of what to do. I
haven't tested the product yet, but it sounds like they're moving in
the right direction. It still makes you wonder what they were
thinking in offering a purposely crippled offering. People know what
spyware is, and telling them that spyware isn't spyware doesn't change
how people feel about it. It also doesn't make them look kindly back
at the company that provided them with the bogus anti-spyware tool in
the first place.

Plagiarism-seeking IMmer pranked and

03/29/2005 03:07 PMCory Doctorow:
Nate Kushner was sitting around one night when he started to get IMs
from a college student who was looking to commission a term-paper on
Hinduism that was due in the morning. She'd seen something about
Hinduism in Nate's AIM profile and so she offered him $75 to write the
paper. He wrote a silly little paper, strung her along, pranked her,
and then published the whole thing along with her real name on his
blog:
Laura K. Pahl: lets talk about it then
Nate Kushner: As long as you understand that plagiarism is not going
to free you from the painful cycle of death and rebirth any
quicker.
Laura K. Pahl: ok
Laura K. Pahl: so can u help me
Nate Kushner: I think I can. It is my duty, as we are all children in
the arms of Chivas.

The Village, was

Margaret
Peterson Haddix, published by Simon and Schuster in 1995. While
the matter of plagiarism is open to debate, evidently the movie's suck
factor is not. Last week, one blogger/culture crit pal was so

theater that he text-messaged me halfway through -- "OMG THIS IS THE
WORST MOVIE EVER."
He was not alone
