MINI-LESSON 2: ACADEMIC REASONS

What are the academic consequences of academic dishonesty?

Watch this video providing a few examples of the consequences of intentional and unintentional plagiarism [[1]].

Here's another video that discusses disciplinary proceedings and even legal consequences that might occur if a student is caught being academically dishonest [[2]].

Here's a final video about why students choose to cheat and what consequences occur [[3]].

After you watch, write down a list of what you think reasonable consequences are for plagiarism. Next, locate a copy of your school's plagiarism policy. Do you feel that the policy is adequately clear? Do you feel like the consequences are fair? Jot down your thoughts in your journal before moving onto the next mini-lesson.
