I've been reading and thinking a lot about critical librarianship, and how to use progressive educational theories within my presentations. I'm especially inspired by Paolo Freire and his view that traditional education is what he calls "banking" - the teacher delivering the truth and knowledge to a passive student. Since he developed his more engaged dialogue and problem posing approaches within a multi-cultural teaching situation, it seemed especially appropriate for the for-profit educational institution I'm in now. Simply put, I added a stage of trying to view the situation of plagiarism from the perspective of the students, and tried to engage with them on how the view of the instructors is quite different.
