How to Prevent Plagiarism? Recent studies have shown that a growing number of students in China plagiarize in college. Some copy from classmates or schoolmates to save the trouble of doing assignments; some cut and paste sentences from various web sources to cook up their own work; worse still, some simply download a ready-made paper to meet the project deadline. Such phenomena are not rare on campus today, and if we do not fight against them now, our education will be open to corruption and destruction. Our first and foremost important line of defense against academic dishonesty is simply good teaching. Professors who give the same assignment every semester fail to guide students in the development of their projects and have little interest in what the students have to contribute to the academic environment, in which cheating and plagiarism occur. Consider, by way of contrast, professors who know their students and who give assignments that require regular, continuing interaction with them about their projects. These professors require students to produce work that is a meaningful development of their own interests. They create an environment in which cheating and plagiarism are far less likely to occur. In this context, any plagiarism would usually be immediately evident to the professor. He or she would see it as inconsistent with the rest of the students’ work. Therefore, a meaningful curriculum taught by committed professors is the first and foremost important defense against academic dishonesty. The second remedy is to encourage the development of integrity in students. If their academic excellence is achieved by cheating, then the idea of integrity should be infused into their mind to help them realize that in reality they have not only achieved nothing but also lost their honesty. A sense of responsibility about one’s intellectual development would stop plagiarizing because it would be inconsistent with his or her identity. It is precisely the sense of individual integrity that schools with honor should seek to promote. Thirdly, professors must encourage students to perceive the dishonesty of their classmates as something that harms the students who play by the rules. Unfair competition causes honest students to lose grades, scholarships, recommendations and admission to advanced programs. Honest students must create enough peer pressure to discourage potential cheaters. Ultimately, students must be willing to step forward and confront those who engage in academic dishonesty. Addressing these issues is not a luxury that can be postponed until a more convenient time. There is only a short step from dishonesty in schools and colleges to dishonesty in business. I doubt that students who don’t develop the sense of integrity and honesty while in an academic setting will do so once they are out in the "real" world where there is great pressure. It is not likely that adults will stand up against the dishonesty of others, particularly fellow workers and superiors, if they do not develop the habit of doing so while still in school.
