Sharing the information on the web.... start them early
My daughter was asked to deliver a talk on a subject of her choice in front of the class. Our trip to Bali had left quite an impression so she decided to give a talk on Bali. After some encouragement she discovered the merits of Google. She found a wonderful talk which had been written by a 17 year old. Fortunately that didn't bother her, she understood almost everything this girl had collected. So happily plaguerising she ripped large parts from this talk.

Of course I tried to convince her this was not quite the right idea, so she ended up copying the general gist. On the day itself she actually forgot her notes so she delivered her talk by heart. So I am very pleased to say it was not a complete rip off ;-)

To be fair I encouraged her to put her notes on the web so future students can use this as a basis for their talk. So here they are, surrounded by relevant Dutch search terms so Google will show up the information in the right context.
