- Title
INFORMATION ETHICS, PUBLISHING AND PLAGIARISM AMONG ACADEMICS.
- Authors
Chukwunonso Aghadiuno, Philip Chike; Oryila, Simon Shachia
- Abstract
The need for a teacher and an academic to be an authority in their fields of specialisation is a fundamental requirement of academic life. Yet, some academics do not wish to undergo the rigorous career path to excellence in teaching and research. Other younger academics wish to but do not know how to go about it. It is in light of this that this paper examines the inter-relationship between information ethics, publishing and plagiarism in the life of an academic. It also examines the gains of productive academic life and how failure to publish or uphold ethical conduct in research or publishing often ruins the career and prospects of an academic. Finally, the paper provides useful tips on ethical standards in research and publishing and how they can be maintained.
