I am an #adjunct at a university where I teach one online #PoliticalScience course. Currently grading assignments and writing comments like this: "Too perfect to read like anything other than a copy-and-paste job".
@publickovacs When I was overseeing PhD's, I used to regularly write 'remember, copying from one source is plagiarism, copying from many sources is research'!!
@publickovacs They always used to copy from the same books. They weren't even original in their plagiarising!
@publickovacs Yes, of course. Otherwise, it's really the same as 'many people say' or 'they say'. THAT used to drive me nuts too. My previous post was tongue in cheek really. With undergrads I used to say 'do you really think I don't read any of the textbooks you're copying from?'
