  • I appreciate your response.

    I don’t consider that plagiarism, it’s just not original thought and goes against the spirit of assignments. Can I go back in time and get the approval of younger me to use my work, no, but that’s a ridiculous bar to set. I define plagiarism as using someone else’s work without giving proper credit for their contribution in your work/thought process.

    Also, in terms of growth, students may grow over time, but if the assignment isn’t the same under the same conditions, you may simply be sampling someone’s work when they got more rest, had more time to devote to an assignment, or just knew more about the topic already. In other words, they may not have grown and the sampling was more favorable for them the second time.

    When I evaluate students/colleagues, I look at mastery of the material. Do they show a working knowledge of the subject? Can they make important distinctions? Can they synthesize multiple parts to make an effective argument? In my field, those are the people who shine.

    The Holy Trinity includes God who is supposedly all powerful. I think He can hold His own 1v1. I’m not saying He would thrash every Hindu god, but it’s not a trouncing of God situation, either. Regardless, when you start adding in the entire kingdom of Heaven, even against the entire pantheon of Hindu gods, I think Heaven wins out.
