Event Description Presented by Katherine Cottle, Assistant Professor and Program Coordinator, College of Arts & Sciences. A number of studies indicate that students frequently are not aware of what constitutes plagiarism, other studies show what appears to be a consistent and deliberate pattern of cheating on exams and plagiarizing other’s works at educational institutions. Plagiarism can be accidental or deliberate, whichever the case, it is becoming a major problem and hot topic on campuses across America. This session will help educators to guide their students away from “accidental borrowing,” provide free methods to detect copied text, supply attendees with websites useful for educating students about plagiarism. Other topics include: Why students plagiarize, warning signs of possible plagiarism, and the main types of plagiarism. |
