Abstract

The article discusses several measures to deal with plagiarism and cheating by students who use the Internet. There are various ways to prevent plagiarism. At the start of the school year, writing samples from students can be obtained to serve as a barometer for their upcoming research paper. As a part of the research process, the librarian and teacher should define plagiarism. Consider taking students on a virtual tour of the paper milles to show them the quality of papers available. Academy honesty tests can be given to students and results discussed with them. Plagiarism can be detected in different ways. This can be seen from the unusual formatting and in-text documentation of papers.
