Abstract

Full Text

Plagiarism is considered an act of academic dishonesty; a sort of copyright infringement. It could be used to define passing off someone’s words as their own, adding paragraphs from other’s publication without adding citations and using quotations without citing the source. Being an frowned upon unethical crime, plagiarism by students is usually considered a very serious offense that can result in punishments such as failing the course. Detecting plagiarism yet poses a bit of a dilemma so many educational institutions started using plagiarism detecting software. Despite being such an offense, efforts need to be done in order to make both the staff and the students fully understand the gravity of such act. So given the seriousness of plagiarism, there has been a call for education for both the students and academic staff.
