Hello All
Has anyone any experience of students using online paraphrasing tools? A number of academic staff have alerted me to this but I have never heard of such software before. One lecturer wrote to me that “I have read several essays this year that I would bet are the product of such tools.” The issue is well explained in this article

I would be interested in your views.
Thanks and all the best
