Plagiarism And The Holy Codes Of Plagiarism

I have read and understand the plagiarism policy as outlined in the syllabus and the sections in the Catalog relating to the IWU Honesty/Cheating Policy. By affixing this statement to the title page of my paper, I certify that I have not cheated or plagiarized in the process of completing this assignment. If it is found that cheating and/or plagiarism did take place in the writing of this paper, I understand the possible consequences of the act/s, which could include expulsion from Indiana Wesleyan University.

Two days before Thanksgiving, Janet confronted James Cox, one of her students, who was caught plagiarizing. Because Janet was already feeling sexist attitudes from her students, James’

I understand that the School does not tolerate plagiarism.  Plagiarism is the knowing or reckless presentation of another person’s thoughts, writings, inventions, as one’s own. It includes the incorporation of another person’s work from published or unpublished sources, without indicating that the material is derived from those sources. It includes the use of material obtained from the internet. (Senate Regulations 6.46)I confirm that I adhere to the School’s Policy on plagiarism.

In a case of dismissal, Academic Dismissal will be noted on the transcript. The penalty for academic dishonesty, plagiarism, and unethical behavior as it relates to the writing of the essay, or creative project may be dismissal from the Class. Any appeal by a student is to be made first to the instructor.A written report of the incident by the instructor or department chair will be sent to the dean of the College or school, who will keep a written record of the complaint when it is filed, and will forward a copy of the complaint to the appropriate associate dean’s office at the time. The associate dean will place a copy of this record in the student’s file and provide the student with a copy.The student has the right to appeal the accusation of academic dishonesty if the student believes it to be in error.After reading websites and other papers to write this paper i have learned that i could have got in a lot more trouble then i actually did.And if i was in college it would be a much more serious

The second story the author discusses is starkly different from that of the Anorexia paper, and makes an example of the type of trouble plagiarism can cause in an institution and those involved in it. In this instance, a male student submits a paper discussing the assigned topic in such a way that triggers the suspicions of the professor. Murphy eventually discovers the true origin of the paper, only to find the student had gone so far as to cut out the evidence from the book. Many denials and meetings later he was “Within the week . . . suspended from the University.” (900). An academic career over, and a weakening of a professors already tenuous ability to trust in his students, were all this case resulted in. Academic dishonesty, plagiarism, wastes the time of everyone involved. It wastes the time of the student because they aren’t learning anything. It wastes the time of the professor who has to search for the original sources of the plagiarized works. And it wastes the time of the committee formed to decide the fate of the student. The author mentions several times his distaste for having to search: “Though I should not have had time to play detective, I made room among all the duties of my life to pursue this student.” (900). Murphy was disappointed in his own inability to drop the case, needing to follow it to it’s conclusion despite his busy

I admit, I had a very difficult time while I was working on the Rhetorical Analysis of John F. Kennedy. My intention is not to make excuses, but I would like to explain the circumstances. I understand what plagiarism is and it would never cross my mind to be in this circumstances. At the beginning of our Rhetorical Analysis we were grouped in partners of three. We reported our own partner for copying information from a website we had found online as we were very concern it would affected us. Unfortunately after this incident, our team was short by one member. Ms. Escudero said it was okay to use her part as long as she had sourced it. I recall we discuss with her about using a CNN video from YouTube of John F. Kennedy giving his inaugural speech , which we did not use after all but in an email she sent after the fact she stated that she had told us not to use a Prezi Power Point because it would be risky. I have no recalling in discussing we

My essays in that English class were below average, according to her standards. She drilled every grammatical rule into our heads until she felt like it would stay there forever, and I felt like she returned my papers with big, fat D’s out of spite. None of my essays had been worth the hours of labor I put into them, so why would they matter at that moment? I was ready to fake it with every ounce of beguiling poppycock I could muster at that

As one begins to grasp the concept of Schroth’s (2012) article The Plagiarism Plague, it is easy to identify the author’s dissatisfaction for plagiarism and the negative connotations he has for someone who is involved in this heinous offense. He initiates and summarizes his commentary with personal stories of how plagiarism has affected him. Schroth offers several solutions for the copyright issue that is upon us; he states, “the sanction for plagiarism must be at least an F on the paper, accompanied by a letter in the student's file to be consulted if it happens again, with the understanding that a second offense would mean expulsion.” Schroth was also sure to mention the collective approach necessary from all educators for his solution to be implemented. He believes the “policy will be effective only with leadership from the president and full cooperation from the faculty.” The writer goes on to explain how plagiarism has become an epidemic in this society and the effects of its prevalence thereof. Although plagiarism has become rampant in this society, it is still immoral and unethical. College students continue to plagiarize however, because they refuse to regard their education as a top priority and it has become culturally acceptable for people to falsify information without any serious penalties for their dishonesty.

Additionally, the Student Handbook reads, “Plagiarism may be either deliberate or unwitting; that is, it is the responsibility of a college student to know what constitutes plagiarism so that ignorance is not a legitimate defense against a charge of plagiarism.” While the demonstration of plagiarism in this instance may not have been intentional or reflective of your overall performance as a student, it was ostensibly present, and the instructor awarded a grade on the essay and for the class that was consistent with both the policies of the course and the institution.

Writing used to be something I really enjoyed doing in my free time (regardless of it being a paper or a story). This all changed during my freshmen year in high school. My english teacher ruined it all. First let’s note that as a writer, my papers usually averaged in the A range. Of course I did write some really bad papers as well, but overall they were A’s. One afternoon after school I sat down to write a paper on the story Of Mice and Men which if you’ve read, you would know it makes points about ageism, sexism, and racism. Within the paper I was writing that afternoon I clearly stated these points and honest to god, it was a really good paper. I was proud of myself and couldn’t wait to turn it in. After turning the paper in, my teacher pulls me aside and claims I plagiarized the paper. I was rather dumbfounded and all I could muster was “What..?”. She proceeds to say we didn’t go over this in class whilst reading the book (which we did) and proceeds to mark the paper as a 70 and leaves it at that. I stood there thinking to myself, does she want me to stop trying in her class? That’s precisely what I did. After that I just gave up on writing quality material as she didn’t think I

Jill La Tore’s reaction to the situation reminds me of my own in a not to different situation. In tenth grade apparently another kid was taking my work and copying down two or three paragraphs while no one was looking. It wasn’t until the teacher made a comparison one day and call both of us out during class. In order to get to the bottom of things she assigned us both an assignment to do in class, then separated us the entire period. I was literally done within ten to fifteen minutes, while the other guy sat there half the class. It was extremely obvious who the plagiarist was at that point though. Our teacher made us both stay after class to explain to him what he had did was wrong and he admitted to it. When she turned to hear my response

While reading your essay, I found a specific passage that contained plagiarism. I was able to find the source where you took your information from, and I noted that both texts were very similar. Although it was not copied word for word, the ideas were the same, and you did not include citations. Therefore, you passed these ideas off as your own, fitting the definition of plagiarism. Since this passage was not copied word for word, yet the ideas were, it leads me to believe that you unintentionally plagiarized, perhaps because you are not fully aware of what plagiarism is. I would like to improve your understanding

The educational system she grew up with was probably ran differently than the university she is attending. The policies and rules were most likely not in forced completely to make students accountable for their actions. This could have been another reason why she took it so lightly when it came to the rules and their consequences. She seemed to not understand why her professor was making a big deal about it and why she had to acknowledge that she plagiarized her composition.

Plagiarism is common in schools, working places, and anywhere in general. Since it is such a common thing, people do it without even blinking an eye. Though you may think it will benefit you, plagiarism is something that shouldn’t be taken lightly. It can effect the person you are stealing from, their grades, work, or possibly get them fired. It is also considered stealing, and cheating. This would be breaking the Ten Commandments, as a Christian, and would be seen as a sin. In the end, plagiarism prevents you from learning and growing as a person and you will not benefit from it in a positively.
