Description
Enrolments by international students in Australian universities have boomed over recent years, especially in postgraduate courses. In many cases these students struggle to meet the standard that their teachers expect.

This resulted in a statistically significant reduction in plagiarism among the students who participated in the unit. INTRODUCTION
