Absolutely. BUT - such unethical operators (a) might not sign up (would we know?) and (b) would not care anyway, as they don't now care. Plus - would it mean that we would have identified the ones that unethical students would like to use as they could then advertise not having signed up as being somehow an 'advantage' to the student? Anyay - I would still like some code so than we know who is and is not......

Do the JISC PAS list members think that an ‘Ethical Code of Conduct’ for online Coursework Libraries would be a good idea? I believe this would be beneficial for both students and educators alike. As we well know there are a number of essay sites which clearly encourage plagiarism. Such websites, for example can even provide guarantees that their essays will not be detected by Plagiarism Detection Software, whilst sometimes simultaneously describing their position on plagiarism in such a way that is designed to convince students that they are ethical.
