Running Head: PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 Persuasive Paper Part 1and Part 2 Jonpaul Allen Strayer University 25 May 2015 1 PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 2 Part 1; Whether colleges should expel students caught cheating or plagiarizing? Introduction In spite of the lasting effects of cheating and plagiarism on the students' future, it remains to be the main concern in colleges. There is no reason to defend the students found cheating or plagiarizing because of the future harm associated with cheating. If this step is taken, students will avoid cheating or plagiarism by all means. Students should be aware that there are consequences of their actions. Students must know that for one to enroll in colleges, it means that someone has invested their money, time and effort towards a successful future (Sheard & Dick2012). Plagiarism and cheating should be taken with much caution. Students know the effects of plagiarism or cheating and ought to avoid it at all costs. This is because it is a serious offense. After graduation, both academic reputation and one's career are destroyed. Several problems caused by plagiarism or cheating will be addressed throughout the paper. History and status of plagiarism or cheating and overview of the problems that need to be addressed All through the history, plagiarism or cheating has never been tolerated. A student ought to make an appropriate evaluation of his understanding and knowledge of concepts. For the reason of punishing plagiarism, sanctions have been put aside. The nature of plagiarism determines the harshness of the sanctions. The examination board establishes sanctions like reprimand and cancelation of the examination concerned. Someone may be barred from the exam concerned for a period of time. The concerned student receives a written form to notify him of the sanction to be imposed. All academic misbehavior is forbidden. Regarding plagiarism or cheating, there are legal, ethical and economic problems that need to be addressed. Plagiarism concerns publications of world economics and it can be seen as the complex ethical issue that PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 3 individuals face. There have not been comprehensible restrictions between quoting, adopting and copying. Additionally, the problems that are presented by plagiarism cause legal problems as it is the violation of rights. The concern of the person whose information has been infringed is the economic problem that must be addressed. The copying infringement does not have to contain plagiarism at all times. There should be a clear difference between plagiarism and copyright infringement (Jones, 2011). First problem (ethical problem) The meaning of plagiarism or cheating may appear to be clear and to the point. On the other hand, plagiarism can be referred to as the most difficult ethical problem that individuals face in the course of their research and publication. Limits between referencing, quoting and adopting are not yet understandable. The ethical nature of plagiarism has been caused by scandals. Plagiarism or cheating has been referred to as misconduct thus has led to potentially ethical consequences. Students in colleges should be alerted on plagiarism or cheating (Jones, 2011). Second problem (legal problems) There are legal consequences for the academic misbehavior of plagiarism or cheating. They are serious because it is considered as a serious offense. Laws that deal with copyright infringement caused by plagiarism are also there. They are unconditional. Students are not allowed to use other people's materials without right acknowledgment. The student can be sued by the owner of the information because this is referred to as a crime. In its intense violations, it can lead to a jail sentence. Students are therefore expected to be aware of plagiarism laws as well as the ways on how to avoid plagiarism. Students must know that plagiarism or cheating is a serious legal matter (Jones, 2011). PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 4 Third problem (Economic problem) Plagiarism or cheating results to economic problems to those caught up in the offense. Those found in extremes of plagiarism are subjected to financial consequences. The student might be sued by the author of the information that has been plagiarized. Monetary compensation may be given out. The fines are always monetary. Most of the research projects that students do always find themselves in problems (Hosny& Fatima, 2014). Conclusion It is evident that the effects of plagiarism are far reaching. No one is said to be resistant to the results of plagiarism. Students' unawareness or stature does not mean that they can be exempted from the ethical, legal and economic ramifications. Students are expected to find out and be careful of the effects of plagiarism. This is the basis as to why students should be sent away from school if guilty of the crime. It acts as a good as an example to other students who may find themselves in the situation to commit the offense. Students are thus expected to be certain of the constitution of plagiarism. Also, ways on how to avoid plagiarism should be educated. The rules are simple to understand, and so students are expected to follow the obligations in their research. Online plagiarism checkers and software are available to check their work before they turn into their professor. Laziness makes most of the students plagiarize their work. Students need to know that plagiarism or cheating has severe consequences and would mean a loss in career and lawful problems. Part 2; Solution to problem and advantages Introduction Plagiarism or cheating in colleges is becoming a major threat to excellence in colleges. Students are having access to limitless accessibility to information thus having access to papers. PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 5 Thus, suspicion for plagiarism is an all-time high. The most basic solution for plagiarism is always defensive. Administrators wonder what they can do to protect to protect the walls of academe from being plundered by the students who plagiarize or cheat in academic work. The solution to the problem of plagiarism will be reviewed along with its advantages. Administrators could utilize various strategies as the solution to the problem of plagiarism. Viable solution that supports the thesis There must be counter plagiarism strategies that aid academic institutions in deterring the problem of plagiarism or cheating. The administrators should enlighten students on the avoidance of plagiarism or cheating in conjunction with the introduction of anti-plagiarism strategies that make the penalties for plagiarism clear. Students must be encouraged on proper citation rules to avoid plagiarism. Writing a good academic paper requires comprehensive understanding of the concepts that must be used when using the information from the internet. Along with this, the administrators must have a clear understanding of the cause of plagiarism. They should also educate and discuss with the students on the concepts of plagiarism. The students must understand the institution's regulations concerning plagiarism (Rath, 2011). This must put emphasis on the consequences that come with plagiarism. Expansion of the staff time is critical to the investigation of the potential infringements due to plagiarism. The procedures for possible infringement must be followed and adhered. Thus, in this case, the administrators must handle plagiarism in an upfront manner. When the students are already aware of the constituents of plagiarism and accompanying penalties, it will be easier to apply the consequences of plagiarism to the students. For this reason, students will comprehend that a deliberate representation of work of others as their own would constitute PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 6 plagiarism and this kind of misconduct brings the infringement consequences and misfortunes to the students (Ho, 2014). First advantage Through the above-detailed explanation of the solution to the problem of plagiarism, there are several advantages to the solution. First, it promotes academic integrity. Students conform to the required academic standards. A clear comprehension of the constituents of plagiarism through education ensures that students do not accidentally or intentionally commit plagiarism. Students learn the principle and procedures for good academic practices. Students get to comprehend that the avoidance of plagiarism does not involve plagiarism or citations rather it is the deployment of academic skills to ensure that the student work is the best. At the same time, there is the maintenance of the intellectual integrity of the academic experience. Thus, students comprehend that the academic world relies on their academic integrity (Ho, 2014). Second advantage The solution to plagiarism avoids the dire consequences of plagiarism. It is clear that plagiarism would result in everything ranging from failure to expulsion from the university. Along with this is the profound embarrassment and loss of reputation. Through education, students get to know all these consequences and usually avoid them at all costs. Students would save the time that would require them to submit other work. It would also spare the total loss of marks for the specific course. Embracing of the solution also would ensure that students are not recommended for suspension from the University or the revocation of their degree. Students that possess writing problems will also be able to identify them early enough so as to improve their skills. They would also engage their writing by deepening their ideas thus ensure the use of PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 7 critical thinking and writing skills in the assignments and exams (Rath, 2011). Thus, students will not struggle to comprehend ideas, interpret and even develop them into writing. Third advantage The solution to the problem of plagiarism ensures that students receive credit only for their hard work and research. In this case, students can contextualize their work as a reflection of the current research. A student will not falsify data to support their research rather tries to foster the growth of knowledge along with the creation of new ideas. Students comprehend that they must gain a certain level of knowledge and ability and avoid the fraudulent shortcuts in attaining a degree since these shortcuts devalue the degree. Students who understand the importance of academic integrity learns to question the source of ideas. They do not just accept the ideas just as they are. It is very dangerous to accept ideas or information as it is from the internet and requires thus students must learn to dig deeper into the source and intended meaning of the information (Rath, 2011). Fourth advantage Finally, the solution to the problem of plagiarism that covers the proper citation ensures that the readers of the student's information can locate the source of the information. This will be helpful if the readers want to engage in their research. Students thus comprehend that their research of ideas is an ongoing intellectual conversation of ideas between them and other researchers (Townley, & Parsell, 2014). Conclusion In conclusion, the administrators should enlighten students on the avoidance of plagiarism or cheating in conjunction with the introduction of anti-plagiarism strategies that make the penalties for plagiarism clear. The advantage of this is that it promotes the academic PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1AND PART 2 8 integrity of students. Students learn to adopt the good academic practices. Secondly, students can avoid the penalties that come with plagiarism. Thirdly, students only receive full credit for their hard work and finally, the reader of the student's information can locate the source of ideas through the correct use of citation procedures.
