Full Title: ESSE 2016 Seminar: Plagiarism in Academia vis-à-vis Ethical Aspects and Common Practices 

Date: 22-Aug-2016 - 26-Aug-2016
Location: Galway, Ireland 
Contact Person: Prof. Dr. Klaus Schneider
Meeting Email: k.schneider at uni-bonn.de

Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics; Discipline of Linguistics; Discourse Analysis; Pragmatics; Sociolinguistics 

Call Deadline: 28-Feb-2016 

Meeting Description:

The proposed seminar aims at providing a platform for exchanging ideas about the relatively underresearched but ever more common practice of plagiarism by academics. From a theoretical perspective, it will focus on the evaluation of current definitions of plagiarism in terms of their variation, relevance in the digital age, ethical and legal aspects. Central to the discussion will be the delineation of the types of text plagiarism and the elicitation of plagiarism techniques such as direct plagiarism, mosaic plagiarism, paraphrase plagiarism, plagiarism of ideas, among others. Various methods for identifying text plagiarism will be examined, and ways of measuring semantic and structural similarity will be proposed. Special attention will be paid to the phenomenon of translated plagiarism, whose linguistic analysis can help to develop a methodology for recognition of cross-language plagiarism.
