Gunawan Widjaja

Abstract


ABSTRACT

This article aimed to interview seven academics related to academic skill instructions to reduce student plagiarism in academic writing in the digital era. To complete the data, we have conducted a series of data searches, the first being an electronic search for data on several publications and literature related to the theme of this study and interviewing seven academics to ask for their views on the guidance and training provided to students at the Krisnadwipayana university in Jakarta. After the data has been collected both in the literature and the results of interviews, we then enter into data analysis under the phenomenological approach, namely an attempt to understand something phenomenal among the existing data so that we can conclude the results as valid findings. Based on the search for data and the results of interviews, we can conclude that academic efforts at the University of Jakarta in combating plagiarism by students include training and punishments for those caught committing plagiarism. Plagiarism training is emphasized understanding and technical guidance methods for students to be able to carry out academic writing activities that are free from plagiarism elements. Thus, it is hoped that these findings will become a treasured knowledge of additional scientific studies and support future projects.
