    About this ebook

    Academic integrity is key to the reputation
    of higher education institutions. Plagiarism, the most frequently occurring
    form of academic misconduct, poses a significant threat to the maintenance of
    academic integrity globally, but it has received very little attention in the
    research literature of the Caribbean. This volume aims to lift the blanket of
    silence that surrounds plagiarism in the region by examining students’
    perception of plagiarism, as well as its prevalence in society generally, and
    at both the secondary and tertiary levels. It also examines accreditation
    agencies’ treatment of academic integrity in their policies. This work is
    valuable to higher education administrators, faculty and students. It provides
    the first in-depth examination of plagiarism regionally, and includes relevant
    information and strategies aimed at helping the region to transition from the
    current punitive approach to plagiarism management to a culture of academic
    integrity.
