Resumo: | This article examines the concepts of plagiarism and its approach by a prestigious Brazilian university - USP. 42% of its institutes do not provide any information about plagiarism and citations in academic papers in their websites. They emphasized the citation rules (56.2%) more than the definition of plagiarism (43.8%). Plagiarism was defined as a dishonest act but without guidelines for its prevention or punitive measures. The article argues for a change of view on the issue: it has to be conceived as a problem of academic writing instruction rather than only as a legal issue. |

Além disso, as unidades enfatizam mais as normas de citação (56,2%) do que as definições de plágio (43,8%). As definições encontradas demonstram que o plágio é considerado um ato desonesto e que há falta de orientações sobre sua prevenção e/ou punição. Assim, neste texto, defende-se uma mudança de visão: o plágio precisa ser tratado como problema de escrita acadêmica e não apenas como uma questão jurídica.Universidade Federal de Goiás2014-12-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/sig/article/view/3031210.5216/sig.v26i2.30312Signótica; Vol. 26 No. 2 (2014); 519-540Signótica; v. 26 n. 2 (2014); 519-5402316-36900103-7250reponame:Signótica (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/sig/article/view/30312/17669Ferreira, Marília MendesPersike, Alissainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2018-02-20T12:22:18Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/30312Revistahttp://www.revistas.ufg.br/index.php/sig/indexPUBhttps://www.revistas.ufg.br/sig/oaisignotica@gmail.com2316-36900103-7250opendoar:2024-05-21T19:57:14.864807Signótica (Online) - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)true |
