From this survey emerges an account of ways and why plagiarism turned very important to educational tradition; how and why present pedagogical representations of plagiarism contradict modern conception of authorship; why the usual, useful textual technique of patchwriting is mis-classified as educational dishonesty; and the way lecturers could craft pedagogy that authorizes pupil writing rather than criminalizing it.
