"plagiarism isn't a bad thing simply because it's an act of intellectual theft -- although it is that. It's a bad thing because it takes the place of and prevents learning."
I definitely agree that this quote found above is true because even though it is an intellectual theft is also takes the place learning time. If students are just plagiarizing other works and putting their name on it then why are they evening bothering going to school and learning. School was invented so that students will come out of it with a degree of education not for them to get an easy grade and not care.
If I had a further question about the information I would want to know the percent of students who agree and disagree with the quote.
