Title of Film: Dawson’s creek
Date: 1998
Director of Film: Kevin Williamson
Type of Film: Drama












Summary and Analysis:
Dawson got an advance copy of the PSAT. He wanted to discuss with his friends and suddenly the fire alarm rang. When they came back to classroom, the papers disappeared. They could not find the copy. When the test of PSAT began, Dawson and Pacey gave up their PSAT test. They wanted to find someone who got the copy. On the other hand, Joey was a painter that she painted an inspirational mural on the school wall. After that her mural has been vandalized. Pacey hit Caufield because Pacey knew Caufield did it. Then, the professor told Andie her grade of PSAT test was very high. Actually, Andie got the copy and plagiarized. At the end, Andie told the professor she got the copy and plagiarized. The professor forgave her and did not cancel Andie’s scholarship.

Relation to Case study:
In Case Study of Chapter 9, Igor wanted to get a high score from his report but he did not have enough time to finish the report. He got someone's paper and the professor asked him to do again. The professor gave him a chance and let him did it again. Igor Also, in this film Andie plagiarized and at the end she told the professor she plagiarized. The professor forgave her and did not cancel her scholarship. Two cases described that plagiarism is a terrible things in our school lives. They all knew they did wrong thing and they were honest.

Reaction to film:
After I watch this film, I know plagiarism is a very serious things that make us lose. We can not plagiarize and it is not our real achievement. We must try our best to finish our work and study. There are a lot of people in our lives plagiarize others, but we must believe ourselves and be a honest student.
