Subject: Plagiarism
 
As we are well aware, plagiarism is a problem throughout the education 
system from elementary school through the doctoral dissertation. Below you 
will find, I hope to your dismay, some popular sources that students use 
to download papers to turn in, rather than do the honest, right and 
scholarly thing and research and write the assignment themselves. For a 
price, students can purchase a plethora of papers on virtually any subject 
studied (including education issues, comparative education, teaching 
methodology, education law and educational leadership) and pass them off 
as their own to unsuspecting teachers and professors. And these are but a 
few:

LEARNING BEGINS AT BIRTH
The author, June R. Oberlander, of the new 4th
edition of the early childhood developmental parenting
resource, SLOW AND STEADY GET ME READY,
answers preschool questions on the website below.
This inexpensive international best-selling book helps
maximize the intellectual growth of young children
(birth to age 5) to prevent them from being left behind.
It also helps children with special needs.

You may want to share this information with your teachers and your 
colleagues.
 
(Of course I would not want to plagiarize, either. My source: "If the 
Computer Did My Homework, How Come I Didn't Get an "A" " by Lisette Luton. 
>From the March 2003 The French Review, vol. 76 no. 4, page 766.)
