Plagiarism on the blog

When I first began reading the blog, there was a student who I thought was writing really great posts. I was pretty impressed, but each time I re-read the post, I noticed that the blog "voice" didn't really sound like a student. I came across one of the posts today and googled it. I found the following which matches her post from the week of Jan. 22. Actually, I think two students were doing it. Just wanted to share. Thought it was interesting.

Commentary

Prejudice begins to play a bigger role in the novel in these two chapters. Truthfully, it is a kind of prejudice that spurs Jem and Dill to try to “get a look” at Boo Radley. All along they claim that their interest is in the name of friendship, but readers know by now that both boys have a morbid curiosity to gawk at what they assume must be a freak of nature.Finally, prejudice appears when the neighbors comment that “‘Mr. Radley shot at a Negro in his collard patch.’” Neither Mr. Radley nor the neighbors have any evidence that the trespasser was black; they make that assumption based on their perceptions of African Americans.

She changed the last little part. Her post was called Chapters 4 and 5.
