NR-535 Week 7 Case Study: Academic Integrity – Part IYou are the chairperson of the School of Nursing Grievance Committee. On Monday morning,
you receive an e-mail from Larry Learner, who wants to file a grievance. He has been expelled
from the nursing program due to plagiarism. You ask Larry to come to your office to discuss the
potential grievance. During the meeting, Larry tells you he has always been an A student.
The content of the initial posting must include the following elements:
• What are two questions you would ask Larry regarding plagiarism and what is the
rationale for each of these questions?
1). Define what plagiarism means in your own words.
Rationale: Asking this question gives Larry the opportunity to explain what he
understands plagiarism to be. According to a study performed by Basic, et al. (2019) on
student’s perception of plagiarism is that the common findings were the concept of plagiarism
is not well understood. They also go on to state that student plagiarism is under reported due to
the lasting damage that can cause the student and the university. In order to understand Larry’s
rationale of what plagiarism means will allow the Grievance Committee to look at this situation
from his decision to use the plagiarized information.
2). What portion of the writing is authentically from you?
Rationale: By asking this question Larry is given the opportunity to review the citations
that were marked with plagiarism and to explain how they are his own authentic words.
According to a study performed by Awasthi (2019) students are not always aware or do not
understand when to cite, form citations or when to reference. It has been studied that
plagiarism is talked about, but students do not fully understand the concept or often times are
in a time-crunch to turn in their paper.
• What are two questions you would ask the faculty member and what is the rationale
for each of these questions?
1). At the beginning of the course did you set out the expectations of the university on
academic conduct and the position it takes on plagiarism?
Rationale: As a faculty member it is important to discuss the code of conduct and to
inform the students of the no tolerance of plagiarism, intentional or unintentional being
allowed and how it could lead to expulsion from the university. According to Goodwin and
McCarthy (2020) it is important that the standards of academic integrity are instilled in students
early on, because it has been noted that students who engage in plagiarism may carry such
dishonest practices into the working environment.
