Running Head: PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1: A PROBLEM EXISTS Persuasive Paper Part 1: A Problem Exists JonPaul Allen Strayer University 2 May 2015 1 PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1: A PROBLEM EXISTS 2 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 still 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 ones 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 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 cancellation 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. With reference to plagiarism or cheating, there are legal, ethical and economic problems which need to be addressed. Plagiarism concerns PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1: A PROBLEM EXISTS 3 publications of world economics and it can be seen as the complex ethical issue that 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. 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 offence. 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 PERSUASIVE PAPER PART 1: A PROBLEM EXISTS 4 as the ways on how to avoid plagiarism. Students must know that plagiarism or cheating is a serious legal matter (Jones, 2011). 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 which 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 send 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 in to 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 (Vijayamma, 2015).
