Imitation a Form of Flattery?

One of my students ran across the site of a teacher in Texas who's using the same weblog review assignment as the one my new media students did last semeseter. I don't really mind — it's a good assignment, and I like for all of us academics to share and share alike. The only trouble is she copied it verbatim and left my students' names next to the sites they reviewed (as if they were the authors of those sites) — which might make for some awkard explaining to her students when they get around to doing the assignments. A little bit of closer reading might have been appropriate 🙂
