PDFAbstract: E-learning is a big pace in education and has a significant role in instruction of students in higher education. Plagiarism is one of the most serious challenges for lecturers to detect; several techniques and algorithms are exist that try to solve this problem or mitigate the bad effect of it. In this research, a comprehensive overview about e-learning focusing on plagiarism is introduced, and presenting an efficient algorithm for detecting plagiarism. Text Matching is the basic of the proposed algorithm; it analyzes texts and searches for matches, not just looking for what in common. When applying the proposed algorithm on two files containing questions and answers. Results show that the algorithm can detect fair and real matching between text files even when the files are including the questions themselves
