- What are your expectations from the workshop?
- Please formulate 3 questions that you want the resource persons to address.
- If you got hold of materials that you think are plagiarized, please remove personal identifiers and send these materials to us (dilc@up.edu.ph). We may use them for instructional purposes.
- Read the Suggested Readings below.
Related Issues
- Collaboration. "Real world" jobs require people to work together. Shouldn't students start "collaborating" in school? How or when does collaboration become "cheating"?
- Knowledge and skills assessment. Which methods of assessment discourage cheating? Are exams, term papers effective in the assessment of students' knowledge?
- Intellectual dishonesty and licenses (copyright, Creative Commons, open source). Certain licenses encourage "copying" but certainly not cheating.
- What courses of action at various levels (department, college, university) are due to address plagiarism and intellectual dishonesty?
