I don't do geography, there's a class of about 20 that do it

All of them had a research assessment due on monday. Everybody plagiarised off the net, and the teacher only caught one out! (She's real smart too.)
Before the culprit was told they received zero, the teacher announced to the class "A plagiarist has been caught". The reaction was hilarious!

Does everybody here think it's easy to plagiarise for geography, or isn't it different to any other subject?????

its all the same. you cant steel someones work. you have to quote or reference what you use or youre sunk. you need to get used to it before you go to uni.

it depends on your teacher to whether its easy

To steal from one source [without crediting] is plagiarism

To steal from many [with crediting] is research.

I don't think it's that easy to plagarise, due to teacher involvement with assessments (asking people how they're going with it, and what they're doing) and the availability of resources on your particular case study or whatever it is that you're doing the assignment on.
