Academic Dishonesty on Campus (draft)

Along with the development of technology, there are many ways for us to develop our own knowledge and ability, among which Internet is considered to be the most convenient way throughout the world. Since recently some students in the university often use the essays or theses on the Internet as their own academic report. As far as I am concerned, it is not so much learning as plagiarism, because there are more and more people using this way to finish their tasks. And it is a pressing problem to solve.

To start with, students are lazier than before when they began to use the sources on the Internet. If they use the essays on the Internet only, as time goes by they will lose ability of thinking. Also, it is dishonesty to use these essays on the Internet. And those who are accustomed to plagiarize can easily go astray. What’s more, the essays or theses are not students’ opinions or thoughts. Obviously, it means nothing.

All in all, I think learn through the Internet is a good idea because there are many knowledge. But we should do things by ourselves, not rely on the Internet. And should come up with immediate actions to stop students from plagiarizing through the Internet.
