Check out the Plagiarism Resource Site from Charlottesville, VA.
Has a student turned in a paper too good to be true? They may have plagiarized it from one of these sites:
The web makes it incredibly easy to download papers from such sites. It is also a simple matter to copy material directly from millions of informative sites.
On the other hand, the same technology that makes it easy to plagiarize makes it easy to catch electronic plagiarizers red-handed. If you suspect plagiarism from a web site, just search for a characteristic phrase in a search engine and see if another copy of the material is already on the web. Or, even better, visit the site: Plagiarism.Org and use it to identify papers plagiarized from the web.
