Abstract
Could student plagiarism actually be reduced? And could it be reduced not through fear of being caught, but through ... education?
The evidence in a study released recently suggests that the answer to both questions is Yes -- which could be welcome news to faculty members who constantly complain about students who either don't know what plagiarism is or don't bother to follow the rules about the integrity of assignments they prepare.
