Plagiarism in the Internet Age

Rebecca Moore Howard and Laura J. Davies coauthored this article published in the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD) website.

This may come as a shock to some of you - it's not the internet that is to be blamed, but a history of inadequate instruction in research and information fluency. The advent of Google and Wikipedia may in fact be a blessing in disguise as we are now forced to ramp-up our students' abilities to digest information and find their own voice.

After you have finished this article, read on; ACSD's March issue, Literacy2.0, has even more articles dealing with literacy in the 21st Century.
