I’m searching for some good websites I can direct my students to, for help in finding good argumentative essay topics.
In my travels, I came across a site called Best Essays, one of the many, many “buy an essay from us” sites out there. What I find both amusing and troubling is that they pledge that their essays are “plagiarism free!”
I suppose that’s sort of technically true. They’re promising students that they essay they’re purchasing is an original work and hasn’t been taken from somewhere else. Except that as soon as the student turns it in to their teacher, it’s plagiarized.
Sigh.
What they should be saying, I suppose, is “there’s no way your teacher will catch you!”
I’m depressed.
