Outline of Final Research Achievements

Essay questions are rarely studied in writing education. Our study has focused on the importance of essay questions for preventing internet plagiarism and promoting thinking on the students' side. Firstly, we analyzed the types of essay questions that can be used to prevent plagiarism and provided concrete examples of plagiarism-preventing essay questions. Secondly, we developed an "essay question taxonomy" corresponding to the revised taxonomy (taxonomy of educational goals) offered by Anderson et al. and then presented a framework for using essay questions to design a course.
