Yes, they know about the four word rule. I spent two sessions explaining how to cite and reference sources. And it is not just the borderlines - one of my 'A' students has lifted half her essay. It is so sad. Most of the plagiarists have not taken an entire essay - but lifted whole paragraphs and re-ordered them to try to hide what they have done. Some have even taken individual sentences from 6 or 8 different sources - so they have done a lot of research! But thanks, all. I will update when I have meted out appropriate punishments.
