How Bad is the Problem?
Roughly 1 out of 6 research papers in a college course on
information security was plagiarized (Ryan n. pag.).
1999 poll indicates 80% of high-achieving students admit they
have cheated, and 95% of them claim never to have been
caught (“Exclusive” n. pag.)
Half of those who cheated say cheating is not necessarily
wrong (“Exclusive” n. pag.)
Duke’s Center for Academic Integrity reports 75% of college
students admit to cheating (“Exclusive” n. pag.)

Students Have Always Cheated . . .
but “[w]hat’s changed, experts maintain, is
the scope of the problem: the technology
that opens new avenues to cheat, students’
boldness in using it, and the erosion of
conscience at every level of education”
(Kleiner and Lord qtd. in “Exclusive” n.
pag.).

Why Students Plagiarize
They are lost.
“I don’t know where to begin, and I don’t want
the teacher to know I’m lost.”

Why Students Plagiarize
They lack confidence.
“I don’t know the topic well enough to put it in my own words and be sure that it will still
make sense.”
![Page 6: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They don’t think plagiarism matters in this assignment.
“It’s not a term paper, so it’s all right to copy word for word.”
![Page 7: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They plead academic privilege.
“In our field, we use information this way, and it’s not considered unethical.”
![Page 8: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They don’t know what is and is not plagiarism.
“But my high school teacher said if I change the words, I don’t have to document.”
![Page 9: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They are looking for ways to save
time and effort.
“All the information I needed was found in this single source, and it was so well written there was nothing I wanted to
change.”
![Page 10: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They “edit in” plagiarism.
“I changed the words, but when I edited, I changed them back without realizing it.”
![Page 11: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They don’t see the purpose of the
assignment.
“I think this is a stupid class and a stupid
assignment; the teacher is probably stupid,
too, so I can copy straight from the
textbook.”

Why Students Plagiarize
They have a precedent of successful cheating.
“I’ve always gotten away with it before.”
![Page 13: Writing Across the Disciplines: Plagiarism Workshop...2017/01/18 · • Create a bogus citation or source • Fail to quote exact words • Fail to cite paraphrased or summarized](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022043021/5f3d7ce5909d894402289320/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why Students Plagiarize
They want to.
“Why not?”

Prevention RatherThan Cure
“No one wants to deal with plagiarism after
it happens. . . . Not the faculty, not the
student discipline committee. The only
viable way to deal with plagiarism is to stop
it before it happens” (Stoyan qtd. in
Adams 1).

Building Plagiarism-resistant Assignments
Require photocopy of each source cited in
the paper
Avoid “fact-gathering” assignments
Assign projects and papers requiring
thinking skills difficult to plagiarize--
synthesis, problem-solving, personal
response, etc.

Building Plagiarism-resistant Assignments*
Make the assignment a process and assess
student progress throughout it
– research diary
– annotated bibliography
– informal, personal response to sources
– oral report
– research paper conference with you

Building Plagiarism-resistant Assignments*
Have a clearly defined policy about
penalties for plagiarism and give it to
students in writing
Model ethical behavior
Motivate students toward ethical behavior
– stress fairness
– stress benefits of learning through engaging
sources(*Source: Robert Harris, “Anti-Plagiarism Strategies for Research Papers.”
