Importance Of Honesty In Academic Life

Importance of honesty in academic life

Introduction

Academic dishonesty or as the issue tells us academic integrity which has a lotDo not give due recognition to this when using your information, what they do not notice is that they are committing a crime that in some countries is sanctioned, although at the educational level it is also sanctioned, an example is within our university where theTeachers begin to lower points if our document presents more than 10% plagiar.

It is necessary to know what we are referring to when we talk about this problem, its importance and various policies that are applied within various higher level institutions such as universities.

Developing

According to the article (1) he mentions a brief concept of dishonesty which is the first concept in which we must look at the time of talking about the lack of academic integrity since these two have a great relationship and we can even mention thatWe talk about the same terms. We define that it is an act where the author claims his rights, that he wrote that article, then requires that when his document or information is going to be used, he of the authorship since the author put all his effort insideof that file and if the person who is using it does not recognize the author is committing a crime and in this case it becomes academic dishonesty.

It also tells us about the frequency in which they occur, where he mentions that the documents that currently do not give the author are not different, within this article more focuses on what it is at the health level, mentioning its frequency which whichIt is derived by various factors such as the country, the public or private nature of the place where they study, the gender and the period in which they are.

The lack of academic honesty not only occurs when delivering a document such as essays, reports, or articles sent by teachers especially those who send as an extra class task, where students tend to make the famous copy and paste and do notThey analyze the information since in many cases the laziness wins them and they think that the teacher will not realize but they have more knowledge than one and are wider and according to my criteria they already have good time working with students so they already knowStudent’s tricks.

It also occurs within class at the time of taking an exam or lesson since the student also commits a foul at the time that begins to copy in said exam, so the use of the cell phone within the living room is usually prohibited and especially inThe time that the exam is taking, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, the teachers already know them all and at this time it is easier to detect the plagiarism in the documents through various tools.

Various institutions have implemented tools to avoid academic dishonesty within the documents delivered by their students, these programs have the ability to quickly detect plagiarism in some file delivered by students in this case of the Faculty of Health.

Academic integrity in education has great importance which is based on ethical and moral principles, we should not consider it only an act because we are also talking about the experience and practice of teachers or teachers showing ethics in students at the time at the timeto do some work sent by teachers. (two)

The magazine (3) indicates about one of the most used programs to be able to detect the similarity of the words with other sources when delivering our work, it mentions various opinions about teachers who feel happy with the use of itGive this program because it helps them to review their work, in addition this program helps teachers to have a better relationship with students where they can easily interact indicating them where they are failing and being able to replicate the class or pointexact where students are having failures.

It mentions us necessary policies to improve academic integrity which have common objectives, these are:

When we refer to the Code of Honor are the norms and their respective sanctions and according to policies it is necessary that the student put since with the happy code he will do an exam to consciousness where he will face the consequences if he comes to commit any fault duringthe evaluation.

The German magazine (4), indicates that since 2011, what is plagiarism in special works is taken into account in a doctoral thesis. In Germany, plagiarism does not count as a legal case directly, but if they take it into account in the violation of the author’s rights since it does not give authenticity to the document, that is, it does not give credit to the person who wrote the filewhere he was guided to do the job.

At the moment that the appointment is put from where the information is taken, it is not intendedDocument in a few word that use it as a guide to create new information.

According to students (5), they mention that it is difficult to know exactly what we face when we talk about academic dishonesty or lack of academic integrity, since various concepts are known.

They focus on the concept of the practice of ethical principles and in the case of already exercising a profession, professionals would be, and subdivide it on three: the first is based on the copy on the evaluations, the second to the creation of fileswhich are sent by teachers to students, and the third where the relationships between students are based.

They mention the various plagiarisms that can be committed within the academic field:

When talking about academic integrity we refer to the foundations that the entire educational community must have, it is where the fundamental principles are born in order to end up defining a good concept about what is integrity. These focus on the five values which integrity seeks to defend the integrity of each of the people who are part of the entire student community. (6)

• Honesty (7)

This has a vital importance within the educational field since all students must be honest throughout the word possible, since they help us directly relate to teachers in what implies the improvement of teaching and learning within institutions inSpecial those of Higher Education.

If this value did not occur in the halls because there were enough failures within learning, since as we know the person who copy will not learn anything, a clear example is when a student copy the task to the other person is committing a faultAnd in addition he leaves harmed since he does not learn anything, it is necessary that the student if he did not understand the teacher or in this case to a classmate but you should never ask for a task already done by the simple reason that it is not usefulbecause in the exam he will not pay and take a bad rating.

• Confidence

It is necessary that there is trust among students with teachers, since at the time they are told that students who are honest with their jobs will give them a vote in their favor and dialogues will be opened where a consensus will be taken.

The relationship of the internal community with the external community must be encouraged.

• Justice (8)

It is necessary that the authorities take precautions when accepting some work that contains plagiarIt makes us difficult to start writing a new report, since we are not accustomed to paraphrase and we get the file with plagiarism, but we do not spend the limits of delivering a job of pure copy and paste since that does not benefit us because we have not readTo be able to perform a critical analysis on the subject they have sent us to investigate.

• Respect (9)

It is necessary that there is respect among the student community with all authorities, since it is necessary that the participation be active at the time of learning respecting all the opinions of the members that make it up.

This respect must be mutual because everyone must be included to non -teaching staff such as cleaning staff.

Students demonstrate respect for teachers reaching the classes, paying attention to classes, not interrupting the teacher in classes, listening carefully what the teacher says, participating in classes, among others. (10)

• Responsibility

The responsibility is given both by the students and by the staff of the institution, since of all it is that the university has a good prestige, and if we relate it to academic integrity we realize that at the time of deliveringA job that has enough plagiarism runs below us with this, I mean that we attempt to the consequences of our actions and if we deliver a bad work of us, the qualification will depend because the teachers have already given us several guidelines not to commitThose mistakes. (eleven)

Students commit this types of offenses just by making their lives easier, and they are also refusing to learn new things since with the copy and sticks they will not learn anything they will only have a brief knowledge about any subject which they sent toinvestigate (12)

conclusion

Academic integrity is of great importance within all educational institutions in this case we refer to higher level institutions, which focus more on academic dishonesty since they want students with excellence and help highlight the institution throughThe work they deliver, enhancing the investigative methods so that the documents have good information but having a critical analysis, not only a copy and hits that is what many students are accustomed.

Students need to know all the policies that the institution has so that the delivery of work is optimally and there is no problem within the academic community.

There are several policies within each establishment so that students have no problem when they carry out their research.

The importance of academic integrity is based on the fact that students will develop a skill that will allow them to critically analyze any information so they can understand and make their own document so that the plagiarism does not know within the same.
