Discussion:    What is the status of your paper?
 
Discussion:    Homework #8 asked you to look over Clifton Phua's paper,
               and compare it to one of the papers he says plagiarized him.
               What did you find?  How serious was the offense, if any?

Turn in:       Homework #9 asked you to compare three papers and make a
               judgment about whether plagiarism was involved.  Let's
               talk about this, but then please turn in your written judgment.

Your paper:    Last week I urged you to fill in all the holes in your paper.
               If you were able to do that, then this week you should read
               through your paper, and see if it flows well, and spends
               the right amount of time on each topic.  After reading the
               whole paper, try to identify one part that needs more work
               and fix it up.
