EVE is a powerful tool designed to combat the growing problem of internet plagiarism. EVE accepts essays in plain text format and returns links to web pages from which a student may have plagiarized. EVE has been developed to be powerful enough to find plagiarized material while not overwhelming the professor with false links. Try EVE by giving it an essay in plain text (.txt) format. Next, find some similar material on the web, copy a couple of paragraphs into the essay, and give the new essay to EVE. In our testing, EVE found approximately 80-90% of plagiarized material. EVE User Testimonials and Awards EVE was given a 5 Cow rating by TUCOWS - the highest possible rating from the TUCOWS network! "Eve is a wonderful tool for teachers who deal with reports, essays, and other writing projects. Just open up a file that your student has written and Eve will check the Internet to see if any or all of it has been plagiarized. Choose how in-depth of a search you want, then click Go - it's that easy! An extremely useful tool to make sure your students' words are really their own. An easy to use interface completes the package, consider this a must download!" -The TUCOWS Network
"...EVE aced the test, finding everything I had plagiarized. EVE is faster, testing four papers in fifteen minutes, a fraction of the four hours it took Plagiarism.org to respond." -Rolling Stone "One word for your program--FABULOUS. Thank you, thank you, thank you. The frustration is over! I will be recommending to our school system that we purchase EVE. I must tell you again how excited I am to have discovered EVE. I spent probably five hours of my own time trying to find the source of this student's plagiarism. EVE found it for me in three minutes! -English Teacher from OH, USA "Dear Eve, I read the best paper I've ever received as a high school astronomy teacher and knew it was too good to have come from the author. Suspecting plagiarism isn't enough in today's litigious society, so I ran across Eve and in less than three minutes had the proof I needed. Eve found that 91% of the first page was plagiarized, and the remainder was due to misspellings during my OCR preprocessing. Including the web site in the analysis allowed me to confirm, and even print out a copy of the original work in case the boy's parents need convincing. It's a pleasure doing business with you." -Science Teacher from Illinois, USA "I recently tried my newly acquired EVE and found three incidents of plagiarism. Each search took EVE less than two minutes. One was by a grade 12 English student that took me to a site virtually impossible to find by conventional search engine method. I know, because I tried a conventional search as an experimental test.Do you know how valuable a little tool you have? I'm pounding a drum for EVE.This has proven to be much too valuable a tool to simply go into cruise mode over. As many educators as possible should hear about it." -Educator from Kelowna, BC, Canada
