Question #1
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material Many physical education and health curricula have been developed to foster active, healthy lifestyles through various learning outcomes and objectives. Although such a goal may be desired and valued by our society, ways to achieve this goal are less understood. If elementary physical education is to assist children in developing skills and understanding that will serve as the foundation for future activities, then educators at all levels need to develop ways to foster these skills and understanding across numerous types of activities. Reference Mandigo, J. L., & Anderson, A. T. (2003). Using the pedagogical principles in net/wall games to enhance teaching effectiveness. Teaching Elementary Physical Education, 14(1), 8-11. Student Version While society may broadly appreciate and desire educational objectives that can help people lead healthy lives, the exact approaches necessary to reach these desired outcomes are not well understood. Mandigo and Anderson (2003) highlight the need for educators "to develop ways to foster these skills and understandings across numerous types of activities" (p. 8) as an important step towards making this desire a reality. Reference Mandigo, J. L., & Anderson, A. T. (2003). Using the pedagogical principles in net/wall games to enhance teaching effectiveness. Teaching Elementary Physical Education, 14(1), 8-11. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
C.   Word-for-word plagiarism
Question #2
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material Many students graduate from college not knowing what they want to do with their lives. We propose that students should be encouraged to think about life goals (not just career goals) from an early age and be encouraged to be constantly on the lookout for better goals. Reference Reigeluth, C. M., Watson, W. R., Watson, S. L., Dutta, P., Chen, Z. C., & Powell, N. D. P. (2008). Roles for technology in the information-age paradigm of education: Learning management systems. Educational Technology, 48(6), 32-39. Student Version Despite investing thousands of dollars into higher education, numerous individuals graduate from university without a clear direction for their lives. Urging learners to consider life aims at a young age with frequent reevaluation could help to avoid this situation (Reigeluth et al., 2008). Reference Reigeluth, C. M., Watson, W. R., Watson, S. L., Dutta, P., Chen, Z. C., & Powell, N. D. P. (2008). Roles for technology in the information-age paradigm of education: Learning Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
C.   Word-for-word plagiarism
Question #3
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material The concept of systems is really quite simple. The basic idea is that a system has parts that fit together to make a whole; but where it gets complicated — and interesting — is how those parts are connected or related to each other. There are many kinds of systems: government systems, health systems, military systems, business systems, and educational systems, to name a few. Reference Frick, T. W. (1991). Restructuring education through technology. Bloomington, IN: Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation. Student Version Systems, including both business systems, and educational systems, are actually very simple. The main idea is that systems have parts that fit together to make a whole. What is interesting is how those parts are connected together. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Word-for-word plagiarism
C.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
Question #4
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material It is not expected that the aspects of a design case which excite the authors are precisely what reviewers see as the case's true points of merit. I was excited to write my design case because I felt it was novel, but novelty is not necessarily an asset to a design case. A design that is unusual or new forces the author to explain its complexity with more precision. Reference Howard, C. D. (2011). Writing and rewriting the instructional design case: A view from two sides. International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2(1), 40-55. Student Version I thought that aspects of a design case which excite the authors are precisely what reviewers see as the case's true points of merit. Turns out I was wrong. What the authors and reviewers see as important are not always the same things. Reference Howard, C. D. (2011). Writing and rewriting the instructional design case: A view from two sides. International Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Word-for-word plagiarism
B.   Not plagiarism
C.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
Question #5
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material You could even skip the debate and simply concentrate on getting letters to candidates. The key is to act. Concentrate on two or three issues at the most. If you write on twelve topics, you dissipate the effect. Keep the letter short, one page if possible, two at the most. Your lawmakers and their staffs are busy and are not likely to do more than glance at a long letter. Reference Simon, P. (2003). Our culture of pandering. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press. Student Version There are many ways to participate in the electoral process. Town hall debates are often open to the public in smaller elections. These debates may provide opportunities for the public to ask questions directly. However, you could even skip the debate and simply concentrate on getting letters to candidates since the letter writing approach is not dependent on being able to get access to limited microphone time. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
B.   Word-for-word plagiarism
C.   Not plagiarism
Question #6
In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material What, however, does not merge in this autobiographical text are the ego boundaries of mother and daughter, mother and granddaughter. They always stand apart but close, always in relation to each other, always in a mental and spiritual proximity, but as presented by the text, never threatening each other's subjectivity. In this way, this textual representation of female and, in particular, maternal subjectivity rewrites--or rather, writes herself out of--the patriarchal inscription of the maternal: there is no fusion between the mother and the child; as is the self-sacrificial element of mothering missing from the text. Student Version With respect to the ego boundaries among the female characters in the text, Séllei (2009) suggests "They always stand apart but close, always in relation to each other, always in a mental and spiritual proximity, but as presented by the text, never threatening each other's subjectivity" (p. 180). Séllei then goes on to contrast the text's representation of the maternal with traditional patriarchal representations. Reference Séllei, N., (2009) The mother in mourning as the subject of autobiography in Rosamond Lehmann's The swan in the evening: Fragments of an inner life. In A. O'Reilly, & S. Caporale-Bizzini (Eds.). From the personal to the political: Toward a new theory of maternal narrative (pp. 170-182). Cranbury, NJ: Susquehanna University Press.

A.   Word-for-word-plagiarism
B.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
C.   Not plagiarism

Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material Television and radio editorials--when they rarely occur--are usually bland; typically, they are opposed to sin and for freedom. But too many newspaper editorials are the same, and newspapers do not have a federal license that might be taken away. The unspoken motto that hangs over too many editorial-writing desks is: Don't offend the advertisers. Don't offend the public. Don't be too controversial. Reference Simon, P. (2003). Our culture of pandering. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press. Student Version While newspapers sometimes serve as the venue where controversial ideas are published, avoiding controversy with the public and advertisers more often seems to be the unwritten but golden rule in newspaper editorials. Unlike television and radio, "newspapers do not have a federal license that might be taken away" (Simon, 2003, p. 67) so governments have less ability to influence newspaper content. Reference Simon, P. (2003). Our culture of pandering. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Word-for-word plagiarism
B.   Not plagiarism
C.   Paraphrasing plagiarism

In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample student version. Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material The design team held weekly meetings during the first semester of work. In addition to these meetings, the team members used emails and a listserv for communication. The team eventually created a website hosted by Google to keep track of all of the decisions made during the design process. Reference Lara, M. A., Myers, R., Frick, T. W., Aslan, S., & Michaelidou, T. (2010). A design case: Developing an enhanced version of the Diffusion Simulation Game. International Journal of Designs for Learning, 1(1). Retrieved from https://www.indiana.edu/~tedfrick/aDesignCaseIJDL2010.pdf Student Version In the end the design team created an online repository to document all the design decisions that were made. However, initially they held weekly meetings with emails and listservs providing additional means of communication. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
B.   Word-for-word plagiarism
C.   Not plagiarism
Question #9

Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material While solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse rather than build it, the pattern analysis shows that the anonymous condition seemed to provide a safe explorative space for learners to try out more reasons for their multiple solutions. Teachers will rarely give anonymous feedback, but the experience of giving anonymous feedback may open a social space where learners can try out the reasons for their suggestions. Reference Howard, C. D., Barrett, A. F., & Frick, T. W. (2010). Anonymity to promote peer feedback: Pre-service teachers' comments in asynchronous computer-mediated communication. Journal of Educational Computing Research, 43(1), 89-112. Student Version It is clear that "solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse" (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010, p. 103). However, anonymity may give learners a context in which they can try providing solutions that are more thoroughly supported by an accompanying rational (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010). Clearly, the positive and negative consequences that anonymity has on peer feedback must be considered. Reference Howard, C. D., Barrett, A. F., & Frick, T. W. (2010). Anonymity to promote peer feedback: Pre-service teachers' comments in asynchronous computer-mediated communication. Journal of Educational Computing Research, 43(1), 89-112.

A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
C.   Word-for-word plagiarism

Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material We considered a number of methods for measuring similarity between countries with respect to their mathematics attainment. A simple comparison of scale scores over time was rejected as this would limit the investigation to asking how much respondents from a country know on a given topic. Instead, we chose an item-level analysis that allows for a closer examination of what respondents in a given country know and how this compares to other countries. Reference Rutkowski, L., & Rutkowski, D. (2009). Trends in TIMSS responses over time: Evidence of global forces in education? Educational Research and Evaluation, 15(2), 137-152. Student Version We came up with several methods for assessing how closely related two classes were with regards to their reading ability. A straightforward contrasting of test scores was deemed unacceptable since this would make it challenging to determine what reading strengths students from a specific class had. We decided, instead, to focus on answers to specific test questions to be able to see how students in a particular class stacked up against other classes with respect to the particular test question Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
C.   Word-for-word plagiarism
Question #11

Please note: If you think the student version contains BOTH word-for-word and paraphrasing plagiarism, you should check word-for-word. Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material The word "comfortable" is more profound than people usually realize. The mystery of genuine comfort goes beyond the simple idea that the word first seems to mean. Places which are comfortable are comfortable because they have no inner contradictions, because there is no little restlessness disturbing them. Reference Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA. Student Version One way to describe a place is "comfortable". What does this mean? Alexander (1979) states that "Places which are comfortable are comfortable because they have no inner contradictions, because there is no little restlessness disturbing them" (p.32). This statement seems to suggest that comfort is an attribute of the place itself rather than something that depends on the relationship between the place and the person experiencing it. Reference Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
B.   Not plagiarism
C.   Word-for-word plagiarism

Places which are comfortable are comfortable because they have no inner contradictions, because there is no little restlessness disturbing them. Reference Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA. Student Version What does it mean to be "comfortable"? Real comfort is a puzzling concept that is more complex than the initial definitions we might come up with. Comfortable locations may be comfortable because "they have no inner contradictions, because there is no little restlessness disturbing them" (Alexander, 1979, p. 32).

Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material As a further example, APT queries and their results may be used to form rules for expert systems that become part of an intelligent computer-based instructional system. Such a system theoretically can optimize student learning by recommending instructional sequences (i.e., temporal patterns) that have high probabilities of resulting in student mastery. In other words, APT-based decision making by a computer program can provide an empirical foundation for artificial intelligence. Reference Frick, T. W. (1990). Analysis of patterns in time: A method of recording and quantifying temporal relations in education. American Educational Research Journal, 27(1), 180-204. Student Version The use of artificial intelligence to make instructional decisions has been identified by many authors. The analysis of patterns in time (APT) queries "may be used to form rules for expert systems" (Frick, 1990, p. 202) for use in education. APT-based decision making by a computer program can provide an empirical foundation for artificial intelligence. Reference Frick, T. W. (1990).

Also, different items can use the same original source material so be sure to read items carefully before responding. Original Source Material Even though the first digital prototype was not fully functional, designers were able to emulate playing the game by selecting diffusion activities and staff members. Through this interaction, designers noticed that players would need to move the mouse from one side of the monitor to the other for every single turn in the game. Designers also realized that the natural order of the "Activity" and "Staff members" sections were inverted because players need to first select an Information or Diffusion Activity and then select up to five staff members. Reference Lara, M. A., Myers, R., Frick, T. W., Aslan, S., & Michaelidou, T. (2010). A design case: Developing an enhanced version of the Diffusion Simulation Game. International Journal of Designs for Learning, 1(1). Retrieved from https://www.indiana.edu/~tedfrick/aDesignCaseIJDL2010.pdf Student Version The fact that players first had to select an activity and then select who to involve in the activity meant that the order of two sections ("Activity" and "Staff member") were mixed up. This issue was observed through the use of an emulated version of the game since the initial digital prototype lacked some functionality. Which of the following is true for the student version? The student version is:
A.   Not plagiarism
B.   Word-for-word plagiarism
C.   Paraphrasing plagiarism
