I've seen this back and forth for a while now, and I wonder: why chase
these cheaters? Firstly, if they manage to do it under my radar - more
to them! (But if I catch them which I do and will - Oy Vey to them!).
Secondly, why not just ask a follow-up question or two for every
student regarding his/her own work, then it should be easy enough to
detect, and if they copied and pasted but read and gave me good
answers - again, so be it and Ko lechay!

I know that there are ways to find out if the students cut and paste from
the Internet  by typing in a sentence or phrase in Google search..even tho
I'm sure the work is plagiarized , I can't seem to ever find it..What am I
doing wrong?....and since I'm sure they're clever enough to change a word or
2 or change the words around..I"ve already tried that!!!!   THanks, jesg
