Perils of downloading reports from the web
In our batch in business school, some seven people were caught in their Management Communications course, for writing the same report (actually only the exhibits were the same). The teacher found out that they had not copied from each other, but had downloaded the report from the same website. We (the entire class) obviously were very careful from next time.

another problem is accuracy. How are people sure that wiki and google gives them the right answers? Esp a bigger problem with wiki..
ReplyDeleteHmm... the FPM speaks. I actually would think that wiki is more accurate than google.
ReplyDeleteOr are you specifically asking about this report!! :-)
