Some "cheating" is innocent and reflects novice students' lack of familiarity with the need to properly attribute sources or a misunderstanding of the requirements of needing to do original work. Calling them a "cheater" is counterproductive. Even those who blatantly cheat will be reactive and hostile to the term. Diplomatic word usage is strongly advised until you can determine if they erred out of ignorance vs. out of malice.
