How many submitted copied work? 50%
or more in each of 4 classes
To see one set of the students’
work for one of those classes, click here. The webpage lets you see both the students’
work and the source pages they used. Each student’s essay answer and the
page(s) the student was using are color-coded to make it easier to compare. The
color coding in their answers and in the source means:
Pink highlight |
The student used in his or
her submission the same words as the source and usually the same structure
(“half-copy” plagiarism in the words of The
Bedford Handbook). |
Orange highlight |
The student used in his or
her submission the same words but they were grabbed from another page of the
source (“half-copy” plagiarism in the words of The Bedford Handbook).. |
Blue __ underlining |
The student used in his or
her submission the same words but swapped the order (“half-copy” plagiarism
in the words of The Bedford Handbook). |
Orange __ underlining |
The words that the student
used (or ignored in the source) are warning signs of some factual error or
equivalent problem. |
This snapshot of the sample
spread out across the floor lets you see the pattern of the errors in that sample, particularly
the pattern of pink and orange.
