Profiling Potential Plagiarizers: A Mastery Learning Instructional Technique to Enhance Competency

Sarah Rosol University of Northern Iowa ; Dale Cyphert University of Northern Iowa

Abstract

Despite university policies and classroom procedures designed to deter student plagiarism, upper-division students seemed to be violating the rules in growing numbers. Recent research suggested that student plagiarism results from a complex mix of factors, including a need for instruction, but offers little guidance regarding effective teaching methodologies. The authors developed and tested an instructional protocol and concluded that a mastery learning approach provides an effective method for reducing student plagiarism.
