Students shouldn’t plagiarize, really?
Educators say that they teach students to be leaders.
Educators claim that students have to learn to critical and creative thinking to be leaders.
For these, educators ask students not to copy and paste because it is not creative.
They also say that plagiarism is serious issues.
Yet, educators use publisher-prepared or other exam banks to prepare exams and quizzes.
Instead of creating their own exams and quizzes, they copy and paste from other sources including textbooks.
Since institutes pay for the services and textbooks, it might not be a crime.
But it is still copy-paste.
Could educators who are not able to create their own exams and quizzes teach students to be leaders?
The chances would be very close to ‘NONE’. Still, they claim that they teach students to be leaders.f you are a student and see an educator uses exams and quizzes that can be found online or other sources, you should request them ‘NOT to copy and paste and be creative
If you are an educator and using exams and quizzes from other sources to evaluate students’ learning, STOP claiming that you are teaching for students’ future.
It would be the money that you are teaching for. You just don’t know what you are working for.
This is like ‘the blind leading the blind’.
