Deborah: Thank you for pointing that out, that is very worrisome indeed. I was told that it would be handled in a week. I’d gone by there but hadn’t seen the image. I must have been clicking the wrong link.

I guess I should have used my own research on that one and clicked the link in my own article…

Just a note on the picture plagiarism – the iPlagiarismCheck picture is still on line today, over a month later. You can see how incompetent the graphics artist worked – the word iPlagiarismCheck is in a completely different font family, sans-serif, than the rest of the text. This can be seen most clearly in the letter “m” which has serifs everywhere but in the name iPlagiarismCheck.

Nicole:

Do they specifically use iPlagiarismCheck or do they use another service? I have family that teach part time at UP so I’m familiar with their service but I could not determine what service they used.

No matter what service you use though, it always a good idea to process your own works. As you said, it makes you a better writer and helps with citing.

I would just like to add that I attend the University of Phoenix and they have the Plagiarismchecker available to the students. I check everything I write before I submit it to my professor. I love this tool because it not only helps me become a better writer when it comes to properly citing my sources but also sometimes you have no idea that what will be dinged as plagiarism! I love the system!
