Preventing Plagiarism [PDF] is a talk I first gave at Belhaven College in a Faculty Meeting in 2010. This is actually my preferred version (I had to substantially shorten & visually simplify the final because of time/context limitations), the “director’s cut,” so to speak. This is not just about plagiarism: the principles here are the core of my work in Rhet/Comp, the principles around which I have intentionally organized my teaching practices.
