Great Prezi to describe and reflect upon your selected topics - remember that you can use a tool up to three times before going to a different one, so you have one more time to use Prezi. The focus on plagiarism is justifiably disconcerting as the amount has increased over the years and I would agree that some of the technology and the 'cut and paste' culture has contributed to it. But I also question why we continue to ask students to answer questions that are found on the internet - why aren't we challenging students to think about what they learned, use any resources available, and use them to solve a problem or dilemma. Students would find it more authentic and when they need to show evidence for their 'solution' they are showing even more knowledge and skill than if they passed a test.
