Okay, down to some serious stuff.  The plagiarism article was really interesting.  I would imagine that there are some problems out there now because there may be teacher’s out there who are not technologically savvy.  For them following up on sources can be a challenge.  I think the only way to prevent plagiarism or at least to try to contain it to a minimum is through strict tolerance and continual education.  If students are taught how to correctly annotate and site, how to properly word information, and the correct methods for researching and obtaining information then they will develop the proper skills and write with confidence.  I think this is why writing has been moved to the forefront.  Additionally, it is why our major is of such concern and importance.  Our future depends on people like us who can write, who know the proper way to write, and who can teach others.  One of the most common areas that students struggle in is writing.  So I think if we can reach more students and teach them the proper way to write with confidence and accuracy, it will help reduce the issues regarding plagiarism.
