YoutubePlagiarism & Academic Honesty:
Quiz Access
The University of Mississippi's Information Literacy Committee has created a video and quiz on plagiarism and academic honesty. This project grew out of concerns about rising rates of academic dishonesty and students' lack of knowledge about plagiarism.
