Scholarly Writing And Plagiarism Analysis

The conditions indicating plagiarism are complex and detailed. There are many different rules which enter into presenting one's research. And as I've learned in undergoing both pretest and posttest, as well as through my review of the TUI Student Handbook, academic integrity doesn't just mean an honest representation of one's own work but it also means learning how to properly give credit to others for the work that they've done.

After writing a paper, Grammarly and SafeAssign, located on the Walden website, help edit a student’s work. Grammarly looks at grammatical errors, such as punctuation and spelling, while SafeAssign looks for text that might be plagiarized. It was helpful for me to identify some of the mistakes made while writing my paper, and I will certainly use Grammarly more often during my writing process.

Plagiarism extends beyond just the academic realm. There have been many instances, in professional fields, of integrity violations in written works. One example of this is Jayson Blair, formerly of the New York Times. After his news agency found that he had plagiarized an article. The article, which was written about a Soldier who was killed in combat, and his family, was found to be plagiarized from the San Antonio Express. (Belt, 2004). This was not the only story that Blair copied, embellished, or synthesized. There were, in fact, dozens of questionable articles written by Blair during his tenure with the news agency. Because his supervisors were not communicating effectively, and no major complaints were registered, Blair was able

Arizona State University (ASU) is dealing with a case of plagiarism, Presenting someone else’s words or ideas without acknowledging where those words and ideas were located, (Ann Raimes, 2013, pg 153) against one of its professors. This is the third time the professor has been accused of using others ideas as his own without citing his source. Should this professor have a job? Let’s take a look at the three accounts and decide if they were a misunderstanding or just plain plagiarism.

Plagiarism is defined as using one’s idea or thoughts as one’s own without giving proper credit or citation to the original author (Merriam-Webster’s collegiate dictionary, 1999). Merriam-Webster’s collegiate dictionary (1999), also states that plagiarism can be intentional or unintentional. This post will discuss the importance of maintaining integrity in scholarly writing and why academic integrity is critical to nursing.

Writing is a difficult, complex and laborious activity. There are areas that need work to be done and get better at. Scholarly writing is directly tied to critical thinking, one need to improve on its critical thinking skills to be able to write clearly, concisely and precisely. This well help in presenting thoughts in a cohesive and logical sequence while being specific. One will work hard to do away with overlong sentences and try to make every sentence a complete thought. Another area that will need some improvement is paragraphing, one will learn how to begin each paragraph with a topic sentence then followed by supporting sentences that illustrate, explain, or clarify main point. In doing this, the coherence, unity and emphasis (CUE)

Today you will check for plagiarism on two documents, one about Dr. Martin Luther King and another document that you have created for another class that you have saved in your Google Drive (like ELA for example).

Which is a also a very good site to use. It doses what the two does. It does the grammar, spelling check, writing suggestion, plagiarism detection. It

Scholarly writing is a big adjustment for many online students today. Students have to learn how to adapt to a graduate level of scholarly writing. Grammar is of course important however, plagiarism is the most repeated of offences. Students do not intentionally plagiarize although attempts to paraphrasing can end up as plagiarism. Learning how to write in a scholarly manner without plagiarizing is a skill students have to work on. There are many resources at Walden’s Writing Center to help students with American Psychological Association (APA) style of writing, grammar, and plagiarism. The Writing Center has paper reviews, modules, and webinars to help students throughout their time at Walden University (Walden

Plagiarism is something that is custom to me now. However, if I were to choose which one that I struggled with the most, it would have to be the paraphrasing. Paraphrasing is when you put an author's important words and/or ideas and make them into your own (Bethel University, 2015).

How do not understand how or why Turnitin is saying that my paper is plagiarism. Minus the two cites that I have, everything else is all me. I took my paper through a website that I used to help me with my grammar and it said before I submitted and after I submitted my paper that there were not any plagiarism phrases in my work. So, my question to you, so I don’t not have this happen to me again is, are there any other websites I can run my next paper through to make sure this doesn’t happen to me again? I’m sorry if this is coming off wrong, I’m just a bit discourage that I am being accused by a website of plagiarism and the site I use states otherwise. I will still take attempt to revise my paper and have it turned in to you

On the other hand, critics have pointed out that teaching and learning are not effective due to that fact, students and teachers now focus on detecting plagiarism and other academic frauds and protection of intellectual capital. Controlling plagiarism among students is critiqued as needless by legalistic and the rules more flexible than those essentially accorded academic property law (marsh 2004). Research integrity has become a worldwide cancer in the 1980s and scholars and media attention was drawn to focus on research integrity. Academic fraud pencil in the attention of stakeholders and journalist to tackle research integrity. As a result, government billed funding to maintain the training and promoting of research integrity (david resnik

The Little Book of Plagiarism written by Richard Posner uncovers the scope of what plagiarism is within different aspects of society. Kaavya Viswanathan signed a two-book contract with Little, Brown at age 17-years-old. Her first book, “How Opal Mehta Got Kissed, Got Wild, and Got a Life,” was published in April 2006. Her sophomore year at Harvard University, the Harvard Crimson discovered that her book had reproduced almost exact passages from novel by an established author, Megan McCafferty. A company of book packaging had helped Viswanathan to conceptualize and plot her book, but there was no indication that the company shared responsibility for her plagiarisms. In their findings, they confirmed there was 13 plagiarized passages that were

Most universities believe students should be expelled immediately due to the acts of plagiarism. But is it really safe to jump to such an extreme conclusion for an action that in most cases, require some sort of investigation or trial? For many years, universities have battled students on this particular subject. Plagiarism has levels that should be dealt with by first locating the cause, examining the evidence, and determining whether it was purposely planned or not. Students, just like their professors, sometimes make simple mistakes and no student should be immediately expelled for unobvious plagiarism. Immediate expulsion is unruly and unfair to students who actually work hard, but may lack the necessary knowledge to detect

This semester was excellent! I found myself taking English 1301 for the first time. At first, I felt overpowered the assignments assort in topics and at times, I felt unknowing of the subjects. Often papers ranged from primitive to intricate. Before long we started off with a simple essay, then progressed from there. Luckily, power points were provided throughout the course.
