Tips for Discouraging Plagiarism in the Classroom
Define Plagiarism: The first step toward discouraging plagiarism in your
classroom is to define plagiarism for your students. Especially in high
school, many students may not realize that plagiarism encompasses
paraphrasing and borrowing ideas without attribution.
Discuss Your Plagiarism Policy: Discuss the reasons for your school's
plagiarism policy. Explain that plagiarism cheats the writers of original
material out of credit for their work, that it isn't fair to other
students, and that it cheats plagiarizers out of the skills they would
develop in writing the papersetting them up to fail later. A great way to
bring up the topic of plagiarism in your classroom is with a quiz. Chris
Anson of North Carolina State University put together a great plagiarism
quiz for teachers to give students.
Spell Out the Penalities: Discuss the penalties for plagiarism. If the
penalties are serious, students will be less likely to take the risk.
Put it in the Syllabus: Include your school's plagiarism policy in the
course syllabus. Putting the plagiarism policy in a prominent location
will remind your students of the definition and consequences of
plagiarism. Also, discussing plagiarism on the first day with the rest of
the syllabus will show students that you're serious about it.
