Hi there,
Are there other ways to detect plagiarism rather than just trying to notice the similarities of the students works and the resources from the WWW?

Ah, now on the third posting, I see your actual goal.

For student papers, the best you can do, is require that they hand write their submissions.

At a minimum, for major papers, require that they keep and turn in a hand written research journal.

Quaint, yes. However, if they have to do some work by hand, you are somewhat assured that they have done work toward the task.
