Target: SEC: Subscribing to a plagiariasm site

[Denise Mancuso <DeLauraine@AOL.COM>]

Does you school subscribe to a commercial plagiarism "stopping" site?
Which one and do the teachers like it?  I have been asked to research
commercial plagiarism sites to which our school can subscribe. They (the
English dept.) like that they can send students' work to the site, have
it checked by the site's search engines, receive a report on possible
Internet plagiarism, and then the paper is archived  for future
plagiarism checks.
Yes, they know how to check it themselves on the Internet but with the
increased demand on teachers they feel that this would eliminate a
time-consuming burden. I have checked the archives and the FAQs however
they discussed some of the paper factories that are on the net but did
not give opinions of any schools currently using a commercial site.
If there is interest I will post a Hit on any results sent over the next
few days.
Thank you
Denise
