Hmm, that's an interesting one.

I watched a programme the other day about kids turning in term papers/assignments where over 60% had been copied directly from the web.

There are actual websites out there that teachers can enter a student's paper in and it will highlight lines that have been directly copied from text off the web. Bummer for those students who couldn't be arsed thinking for themselves.
