Promoting Anti-Plagiarism Content Among Undergraduate Students


Education is about orginal and genuine ideas. We need original thinkers and researchers. University students must put serious effort in writing their term reports and essays. Feedback must be given to students after careful process of checking.

It's job of instructor to promote anti plagiarism policy of the institute. The practice of stealing content from Internet is very common. Because it restricts effort and content is easily accessible on internet. It's very important for Social Scientists to promote creativity because social sciences ensures there are poets, thinkers, philosophers and reformers, who can change and create the history simply with their thoughts. Studying social sciences without putting an effort to become a thinker and behave like philosopher is simply useless.

This culture of promoting research skills must begin from the first year of university at undergraduate level. Our students mostly struggle with English and comprehension. We have to give them enough education of language and research as well to think objectively and neutrally.

Research is serious exercise. It requires lot of practice, study and experience. The first step is to enhance critical thinking skills so students can think out of the box. It doesn't only mean to state a problem but problematizing and brainstorming it extensively. 

It requires lot of hardwork for instructor to check the assignments of students who are in hundreds, but it is fundamental responsibility of the instructor to give feedback to the students so they can improve their skills. Feedback plays a huge role for teachers as well as students to work on their skills and short comings. 

If only our students realize that the efforts are acknowledged by the instructor and appreciated in terms of rewards, may be then there could be seriousness in putting a bit of effort in student's term papers and essays. This is serious exercise and it has very deep impact on the students. 

One day, after decades of dedication & commitment we might see overall change in the society. We might produce thinkers and philosophers who would be able to identify indegenious problems of our society and address it objectively learning from the history.

Why do thinkers suffer?

History is full of amazing people who changed the world with their thoughts- Poets, Philosophers, Writers and Leaders, all of them were very much thinking beings. Some of them took extraordinary positions in life, the challenging positions, they carried an idea for which they had to suffer and yet they suffer from this emptiness to say, write and deliver more. The feelings and urge to communicate the deeper meaning through actions were so powerful that most of them could never function in their normal routines.

There's a thin line between insanity and being a genius. It is the perfect combination talent, luck, and personality, These are people who would speak to millions and their voice and ideas are timeless. The question is if they have achieved such level, fame, money and perhaps they are eternal all time celebrated heroes for centuries in the history, then why do they suffer?







The human race has lost a great amount of talent, extraordinary burning minds often in their own hands by committing suicide. The common will never understand this crisis of a sensitive thinking person. It just not searching for soul-mate, just not looking for right words, just not succeeding to get Nobel peace prize or winning an election, this urge is different, this arrogance of these genius minds that they carry in their actions, they drive millions of people crazy, everyone connects with them. They inspire dreams, but the incapability of not achieving more than what already they have is what get them killed.

Stephen Hawking is one of the few people who symbolizes such extraordinary life, he hardly can move and speak, but with his ideas - he jolts the entire world. Otherwise, he is a very much common man like any other person with a disability- He refuses to give up but I am not talking those who survived. I am talking about those who didn't, who lost the sense of meaning, belonging and purpose, who always thought they belong to somewhere else and creative thinking beings suffer from their own ideas, and the rate of genius' committing suicides is higher than the already celebrated genius we have in the history so far, many untold stories kept aside.
