Bren, great organization and overall layout of the wiki page. VERY thorough resources and, as one would expect from an English teacher, clean mechanics. If I may make a couple suggestions to beef up the content:

1)While the video explains why students cheat, people at computers without video viewing software may also want to know the "why" of the cheating. List a few reasons in that section's text.

2) To expand on your teaching tool explanation, anti-plagiarism software also shows that sometimes a student can properly cite sources but still have only a mediocre paper for failure to include enough of their own original content. If the software shows that a paper is 59% quotations, even if the student properly cites this, he or she should realize that having only 41% of a paper being their own analysis isn't sufficient.

Great job again. Do you find this valuable?
