This article offers reasons why students in the digital age plagiarize and how to implement a culture of academic integrity within the school to prevent it from happening. It also provides a list of resources that teachers can use to teach students about plagiarism.
One of these resources included a 3 part lesson plan teaches students about plagiarism, copyright, and fair use. It also teaches students note-taking strategies in order to prevent students from plagiarizing. It is targeted for middle school students, but could be adapted for other grades:

This blog post provides a list of tools that teachers can introduce to their students in order to improve their online researching skills. I was aware of Google Scholar, but some of the other ones sound interesting such as Sweet Search, a search engine that provides the students access to 35,000 websites that have been reviewed and approved by Librarians.
This is a video posted to the blog about a tool called RefME that helps students organize their sources and helps them create citations:

A decent list of potential resources related to your search key terms with links and brief description. This was an ok start, but the assignment was also asking you to reflect and discuss on the search so far, whats been working, what has not, what you expected to find, versus what you actually found. How are you adapting your search as you go? Will you change your keywords, will you explore different avenues?
