It is simply amazing how people will go through great lengths for so-called achievement. Michelle Vu outlines two more essay-for-sale websites in, "Free Online Paper Mills". This practice is crippling the minds of future business owners, politicians and possibly even educators. She presents the contrast of eCheat vs Custom Writings. On one site, eCheat, the student is not given a chance to preview what the final outcome of paper will be. However, it does specifically warn that submitting a purchased essay to any third party without proper citation (eCheat) is plagiarism. Instant doom! In contrast, Custom Writings goes to great lengths to convince the customer that the paper is plagiarism free, and then discourages turning in the paper in their terms and conditions. What a contradiction! Both sites come with a price that could ultimately be free and no worries if students will put in the time to do the work, practice adequate time management and integrity.
The student, maybe unknowingly, sacrifices an important part of the education process as they dismiss dedication and the practice of writing and rewriting to perfection. They forego the building of important life lessons of building upon the characteristic of determination and a yearning for excellence that will serve them well as they push toward their pursuit of education and life balance.

ReplyDeleteGreat post! I liked the short, exclamatory sentences in the first paragraph. I think you could have explained your supporting statement in more detail in the second paragraph. Overall, your post was well constructed. -Lauren Lamar
ReplyDeleteOn line for hire, essay service is not as simple as it seems. This post is very informative,with how those who attempt to take short cuts when giving an assignment may not get their money worth.
