I just read this article about plagiarism and the way this issue has been handled for some time. I believe that this is an important topic that we certainly have to have in mind. This matter is committed very often by students and in my conception it attempts against the originality and creativity from the people that have been plagiarized.
It is true that nowadays students tend to copy texts they find more suitable for their assignments and then paste them along with other texts and create some kind of scrap quilt.
For me it's really important to make students be concerned about being original, respecting other people's work by not stealing ideas and creating innovative things. The following link leads to the New York Times article that I'm talking about.
