    Also note: My university is trailing a piece of software that scans the coursework you submit, then compares it against a database of a fair hundred thousand texts and essays to check for plagiarism.

    This sounds futuristic and almost impossible to some, but its not, it works very well, I should know - I've worked on similar systems :).
    They have just started using it at my University. NTU. Only one module this year has used it, but I somehow think this sort of checking will soon become the norm.
