    The more students are networking, the more they are finding information/ways to cheat. A shift towards plagiarism is heading towards networking sites and less episodes are being found from traditional "cheat sites" or "paper mills" according to "Turnitin."

    There is so much information available now to people that plagiarism is easier and more tempting.

    "Plagiarism is cheating, it is dishonest, and it is unethical." The first way to avoid students from plagiarizing is to set clear expectations in a written format that provides concrete examples. There are programs such as Glatt Plagarism Services that can be used to detect plagerism. By giving students a good background on the importance of citing ideas, topics, and quotes and providing them with how to cite correctly, they will be less tempted to plagiarize. As educators we can take many steps to provide support for our students so that they do not plagiarize.
