Outline of Final Research Achievements

In our tutorial education, students were given a task of writing a report online, using Google Docs. In our first study, by tracing the work history obtained from online report files, we analyzed their writing process, focusing on the process of copy-and-paste plagiarism. An analysis of the change log of written reports enabled us to visualize the students’ writing process. Sudden increase in total letter count demonstrated the possibility of plagiarism. In our second study, each report was scanned with plagiarism detection software, and its work history was analyzed. As a result, a positive correlation was found between copied-and-pasted text percentage in a submitted report, and copy-and-paste frequency in its writing process. Our third study examined unnatural null-deletion typing behavior. Instead of copying a whole passage from the Internet, every part of the idea was taken and typed continuously with minor modification, without a rethinking process.
