Prospectus

1. The setup in the second paragraph was done well, but I feel as if the last sentence in the paragraph does not fit. The writer talks about two aspects; how to do it and how to prevent it throughout the paragraph. The last sentence brings up an entirely different topic that doesn't lead into the next paragraph.

2. I think maybe the writer could set up their paper differently, by rearranging the paragraphs. The paragraphs are fine for the most part, but it may be easier to understand if they switched the third and fourth paragraphs. I think the last sentence in the second paragraph would transition better with the fourth paragraph. The third paragraph ends with "instructors," and the fourth paragraph begins with "instructors." The transition betweent he two paragraphs would look better and make more sense this way.

3. In the third paragraph the author starts the paragraph out with, "There are several ways to plagiarize.." although what are these ways? I think they need to give more detail on the different ways a student can plagiarize.
