I need some assistance with these assignment. different approaches to addressing academic plagiarism Thank you in advance for the help! Concomitant to this is the importance of having faculty members who are proactive in determining and probing the causes of plagiarism, and who are also willing to perform their roles in dealing with each concerned student. Background Hexham (2005) defines plagiarism as “…the deliberate attempt to deceive the reader through the appropriation and representation as one’s own the work and words of others.” It was further mentioned in the article that academic plagiarism happens when more than four words are extracted from a source, without using quotation marks and proper reference, and when the material is composed mainly of continuous paraphrasing without the insertion of any original argument or addition of new material. Given this, Hexham (2005) likewise enumerates the different types of plagiarism, which are concisely discussed below: (1.) Straight Plagiarism—Occurs when minor changes, like deletion or addition of words, capitalization, and sentence structure changes, are done. Such changes, albeit “minor,” can still make a certain work appear as if it is “original.” (2.) Citing the original author without quotation marks or references—occurs when the writer acknowledges the real author and copies the original text without using quotation marks or proper references. (3.) Simple Plagiarism Using Footnotes—even though reference is given, plagiarism can still occur when quotation marks are not used and when little changes are made from the source so as to make the new material appear original. (4.) Complex Plagiarism Using Footnotes—this kind of plagiarism is less noticeable because the appearance of the original work is altered by means of many re-wording and paraphrasing, but still, the contents are the same. This type makes use of references without properly using quotation marks. (5.) Plagiarism with Hanging Quotations—this happens when a writer uses quotation marks and continues to quote even though the quotation marks are already closed. (6.) Paraphrasing as Plagiarism—this type of plagiarism is harder to prove because it is characterized by either paraphrasing without citing the original source or continuous paraphrasing and citing of sources, but no insertion of original argument, insights, and/ or discussions.
