Thinking Out of the Box
When I gave assignments, students would normally copy & paste from the net or committed plagiarism in other forms. I don't quite mind as long as they know what they are copying and pasting and plagiarising. It is a learning process. Plagiarising in itself is a technique. Sometimes it can be so glaring it amounts to humiliation. I try not to get offended. So, once in a while, when a student submit something so original, your heart just swell with pride. Such a case was with Shaabana. She chose a topic on effectiveness of industrial training. To gather information, she prepared her own questionnaire and got the participation from her seniors. As Tracy Chapman croons, "give me another reason to stay...", I know I at least have one!:)
