Plagiarism Education Week
Join us for a week of activities to
help educators foster student understanding that Originality Matters,
including free webcasts with prominent educators who will delve into
the key issues around academic integrity. The daily webcasts during
the week of April 22-26 will address the causes, types, responses and
approaches to plagiarism, and attendees will receive access to new white
papers, research and giveaways. We'll cap off the week with a
discussion on encouraging originality and creative thinking.
