After reading it carefully and critically, please write a 300-400 word response to this question:
Do you agree that plagiarism is an issue in schools? Do you think colleges/schools are doing enough to combat it? Explain your thoughts. Use evidence from the article, the video on plagiarism, and your life to support your thoughts. Any exact words from the article or video should be placed in quotation marks (“…”) and have an in-text MLA citation (see here Ch 24.2Links to an external site.). Summarized or paraphrased ideas do not need quotation marks, but they should have the in-text MLA citation.
