Phoenix lagiarism !he!"er it !ame u #ith the result of $%& mat!h. The results
sho!"ed me. ' have been out of s!hool for a fe# years and the te!hnology out there no#
to dete!t lagiarism is over#helmingly sho!"ing. ' did not "no# that the systems that are
in la!e no# to dete!t lagiarism !ould be that a!!urate. (eing as there are so many
online students ta"ing !lasses and submitting numerous assignments) there definitely
should be a system in la!e to dete!t fraud.
Putting myself in the fa!ulty member*s osition) my !ourse of a!tion #ould be to
ta"e this a!t of lagiarism as far u the !hain of !ommand as ossible. There is no room
for deliberate a!ts of forgery among the !ollege environment of any of that matter.
+omeone else*s #or" has the right to be rote!ted under any !ir!umstan!e. That author
has ut their thought) time) effort and resear!h into doing their o#n original #or" and
that should not be !omromised for another students la,iness. +tealing another
individuals #or" is dishonest) disloyal to the university) and above all a !rime. Any tye
of submission of #or" that is not original from that individual- #hether it*s ta"ing a aer
from a friend and submitting that) or !oying and asting different arti!les to ma"e a
#hole assignment is a!ademi!ally #rong. There is no room for dishonest a!ts in the
learning environment of any s!hool.
