The goal of this webinar is to provide insight into plagiarism as it relates to NSF-funded research and to offer plagiarism prevention strategies to educational institutions based on our experience investigating plagiarism allegations.
This webinar discusses the findings of our review including the most common reasons the researchers gave for their plagiarism.
