"...By simply having students show the development or thinking process that they went through -- or even an important piece of it, their ability to plagarize is significantly reduced, and we have successfully integrated information literacy to boot." -- Deb Gilchrist, Pierce College Dean of Library and Media Services, writing in response to a query about turnitin.com.
