Written for Higher Education educators, managers and policy-makers,
Plagiarism, the Internet and Student Learning combines theoretical
understandings with a practical model of plagiarism and aims to
explain why and how plagiarism developed. It offers a new way to
conceptualize plagiarism and provides a framework for professionals
dealing with plagiarism in higher education. Sutherland-Smith
presents a model of plagiarism, called the plagiarism continuum,
which usefully informs discussion and direction of plagiarism
management in most educational settings. The model was developed
from a cross-disciplinary examination of plagiarism with a
particular focus on understanding how educators and students
perceive and respond to issues of plagiarism. The evolution of
plagiarism, from its birth in Law, to a global issue, poses
challenges to international educators in diverse cultural settings.
The case studies included are the voices of educators and students
discussing the complexity of plagiarism in policy and practice, as
well as the tensions between institutional and individual
responses. A review of international studies plus qualitative
empirical research on plagiarism, conducted in Australia between
2004-2006, explain why it has emerged as a major issue. The book
examines current teaching approaches in light of issues surrounding
plagiarism, particularly Internet plagiarism. The model affords
insight into ways in which teaching and learning approaches can be
enhanced to cope with the ever-changing face of plagiarism. This
book challenges Higher Education educators, managers and
policy-makers to examine their own beliefs and practices in
managing the phenomenon of plagiarism in academic writing.
