Hi, everyone!

What is plagiarism?  I haven't thought about it much before. However it is really important issue. Students face this problem very often, particularly when writing an essay. There are a lot of information on the Internet. So it's really easy just to copy it and then paste this text into your works. Though, this is not the way to do it. It's necessary to paraphrase and write your own words. Fortunately, nowadays there are many resources to check for plagiarism.

I've chosen Viper (https://www.scanmyessay.com/?utm_campaign=elearningindustry.com&utm_source=%2Ftop-10-free-plagiarism-detection-tools-for-teachers&utm_medium=link)

First I noticed the interface. It's really nice and user-friendly. To use this resource, you must register. This is not very convenient, but you can log in using Google account. It helps to save your time. It's 100% free and all features are available. It checks, scans and compares documents. It's ideal for students. As I have read on their website, this program checks your document for plagiarism against 10 billion sources including journals, books and websites. I also noticed that this online app is available in Spanish. But for me it is not relevant:) This site is not very convenient to use from your phone, it is better to use it through a computer.

In general, I liked the app and I would like to use it in the future.

    thanks for testing Viper and explaining its advantages and disadvantages, though you have mentioned you haven't noticed too many. Have you considered using it or you have been using some other app(s) to check your works for plagiarism that you liked more?

A reflection note. Torgalo Elisaveta

                                                           A Reflection Note Our semester is coming to an end, and therefore I want to leave my impressions about the course of studying academic writing. Firstly, I really liked the format in which our classes were held. Since we live in the modern world, I think it is very important to be able to use and process information on the Internet, and this is exactly what some of our lessons were built on. Thanks to this, I learned to look for the information I need and work with anti plagiarism. Moreover, during this semester there was a lot of practice in writing essays of various types. Because of this, I learned how to structure information and express my thoughts correctly in writing. As for the topics themselves, I really liked the themes that we discussed. They are ver...

A for-and-against essay. Torgalo Eliaveta

                                                Are ebooks so popular and good nowadays?                                                             With the development of digital technology, many physical elements, such as pen and paper, are gradually being replaced by computers and smartphones. But is it really good? Since the creation of "electronic readers" more and more people are turning to the technological side of reading.    One major advantage of e-books is portability.
