Anti-plagiarism strategies for environment engineering students

Abstract

close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work. " Within academia, plagiarism by students, professors, or researchers is considered academic dishonesty/fraud and offenders are subject to academic censure, up to, and including, expulsion. It is a breach of ethics, and the ones caught plagiarizing face disciplinary measures ranging from suspension to termination of employment. Some individuals may claim that they plagiarized unintentionally, by failing to give the appropriate citation. While plagiarism in scholarship and journalism has a long history, the development of the Internet, where articles appear as electronic text, has made the physical act of copying the work of others much easier. Plagiarism is not the same as copyright infringement. While both terms may apply to a particular act, they are different transgressions. The former means reputation dishonestly earned, whereas the latter is a violation of a copyright holder’s rights, when material protected by copyright is used without consent. Key-Words: anti-plagiarism strategies, education in engineering, prevention methods, cultural perspectives 1
