Plagiarism Detection and Prevention

Information here is my view of Plagiarism Detection and Prevention

I think that as long as you site your source then you are perfectly fine and it is not plagiarism.In the real world you do not have to worry about plagiarism, its just in the educational world, everyone borrows information and normally citing is the issue where people are considered plagering work.for this posting I refuse to cite my sources that I got from plagerism.com What is Plagiarism? Types of Plagiarism Glossary Prevention Check for Plagiarism What is Plagiarism? Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work or borrowing someone else's original ideas. But terms like "copying" and "borrowing" can disguise the seriousness of the offense: According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, to "plagiarize" means to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own to use (another's production) without crediting the source to commit literary theft to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and lying about it afterward.

Approached with the questions about impact, usability, functionality appeal and consideration of implementing technology of Learning. I am a Computer geek so technology usage in the classroom is highly supported here. The technology used in classroom has to have appeal because to hold your learners attention. The days of Chalk boards and SRA were replaced with smart-boards and X Box 360. Now the beauty in this beast you have to be able to used the divide to function in your learning environment. You have to implement this in the learning not so the students not just learn your methods but to what you are instructing as well. In this post i selected the iPad because it technically sexy. It commands attention from the world and is a perfect example of everything needed in education technology.

 

What impact does multimedia and technology have on education? Todays learner is ADD, so you have to be able to hold ones attention and the fact that there is multiple styles of learning you really have to be able to maintain the students attention.

What is the most important thing when implementing technology. I would say make make sure it meets the standards, and it appeals to your learner.
