Plagiarism Education: Considerations for the Semester Start-up | Faculty Focus

Plagiarism Education: Considerations for the Semester Start-up | Faculty Focus | Help and Support everybody around the world | Scoop.it
Plagiarism is concerning for colleges and universities (Curtis & Vardanega, 2016). Students begin higher education with varying degrees of knowledge on the topic of plagiarism; sometimes students have a limited understanding of the behaviors that constitute plagiarism. Gourlay and Deane (2012) suggest “a proportion of plagiarism is committed via confusion over how to integrate and reference source materials into academic writing” (p. 19). Moreover, some students might be unfamiliar regarding when they can claim an opinion as their own and when they need to use a citation (Ballantine & McCourt Larres, 2010). Being unfamiliar with the behaviors that constitute plagiarism might be a reason why students engage in this type of academic misconduct (Insley, 2011).

How To Be a Better Listener

How To Be a Better Listener | Help and Support everybody around the world | Scoop.it
“Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.” — Stephen Covey

Listening is a skill and you can get better with practice. 

But why get better at listening? 

Skilled listening can help you connect with others, learn faster, win friends, and influence people.

This article came in handy for sure because I have always thought as myself as a good listener, but what made me a good listener? Turns out I could be a better listen just from simple tools from this article provided. Source wasn't bias at all, just gave you the facts on how to become a better listener because everybody wants to be heard, but yet no one ever wants to listen. I was always better at listening and not speaking I never liked to talk. My boyfriend on the other hand is the complete opposite as me. He talks non stop, but listening is not his strong side. Everyone can talk, but very few can actually listen. Being able to be a good listener you can actually connect with people more and start learning about others, even though they are talking about something that may not interest you they still deserve your attention just like you would like their attention. This article was very well thought out and I love how they gave you different sections in the article to help you connect with yourself as to if you are a good listener and if you're not it explained how you can improve.
