Blog 7 argument paragraph

  We have focused on the plagiarism for several weeks since the academic year began. We have to admit that the plagiarism and copyright infringement is a popular topic recently. Some students do not know how to finish their assignments or they just want to finish their tasks "efficiently";therefore, they may copy others' work. Nowadays, more and more international students coming to the US for study, so the plagiarism will become an issue which they also should care about; however, a lot of foreign students could not fully understand the rules because of their culture or knowledge background. Therefore, "how to let these foreign students fully understand rules like Honor Code" become a big question which no educational facility can avoid. The first article "cheating across culture" showed us that some business school students who failed to acknowledge the Honor Code got serious punishment. The author Elizabeth Redden points out that this situation definitely due to their educational background which seen copy as a respect to the original source. Solutions must be figured out before things get worse. The author Elizabeth Redden suggests special orientation for international students to help them overcome this problem. However, this problem is not only occur in the international students, but also happened in the Harvard University. Recently, the news that 125 Harvard students were accused cheated in the exam drug our attention back to the plagiarism. Cheating and plagiarism become a topic which no one can afford to ignore.
