Plagiarism: Examination of Conceptual Issues and Evaluation of Research Findings on Using Detection Services.
TLDR
In this paper, the authors analyze and evaluate the research findings on using plagiarism detection services (PDS) in universities and discuss their own perspective on the issue of implementing PDS in various educational contexts.Abstract:
The purpose of this review is to analyze and evaluate the research findings on using Plagiarism Detection Services (PDS) in universities. In order to do that, conceptual issues about plagiarism are examined and the complex nature of plagiarism is discussed. Subsequently, the pragmatic forms of student plagiarism are listed and PDS strategies on detecting plagiarism are accounted briefly. Research findings are categorized into four interconnected areas: (a) effectiveness and efficiency of PDS; (b) university and course context; (c) perceptions and attitudes towards use of PDS from educators; and (d) perceptions and attitudes towards use of PDS from students. Finally, the authors discuss their own perspective on the issue of implementing PDS in various educational contexts.read more

Plagiarism: words and ideas.
