  3. The prevention, detection and punishment of plagiarism consumes a lot of energy in most higher education institutions. However, it is perhaps worth starting by saying that good practice in dealing with plagiarism is also good practice in terms of learning, teaching and assessment more generally. Setting the same assessment questions year after year, allowing for little individual input and resorting to unseen examinations are not conducive to real deep learning but, unfortunately, characterise many students' experiences. Ref:http://www.physsci.heacademy.ac.uk/publications/briefingpaper/plag6.pdf The rationale

  4. Paper mills The UK’s largest essay bank www.coursework4you.co.uk is providing students with an easy way to make money. The Company is offering cash in exchange of students' essays, term papers, courseworks and dissertations. Never before have students had an option to sell their papers for CASH and get it IMMEDIATELY. In addition to that, the whole process is really easy. The website asks you to fill in a simple form, select the payment plan and upload the papers you'd like to sell. It takes less than a minute! No hassle at all! The Company is obviously quite strict with quality and plagiarism: every paper is checked and plagiarised papers will be declined. But what else would you expect if they are paying CASH?!
