Student's plagiarism - a challenge for paramedic educators
Nucl. Med. Rev 2006;9(1):89-91.
Abstract
Student's plagiarism is a growing problem not only in the writing
of controlling essays, but above all in the writing in BSc./MSc.
diploma theses, which sometimes can be simply bought from
ghost-writers. This is a major challenge for medical educators,
particularly in paramedic professions. The aim of this paper
is to overview the frequency of plagiarism among students, the
factors influencing plagiarism, the ways of detecting it and potential
countermeasures.
