EBSCOhost: ETIQUETTE ONLINE: From NICE to NECESSARY. - 0 views

Different types of technology require difterent forms of etiquette [4]. Textmessaging via a mobile phone is difterent from instant messaging and worlds apart from the asynchronous experience of email. A short abrupt comment that is acceptable in instant messaging may not be in email where some people expect to be addressed by name. Emotional affordances, syntax, and semantics vary across technology, too. 1-urthermore, new technologies may challenge previously accepted norms. Who would have guessed that having a stranger edit one's fastidiously composed prose without first asking; permission would be acceptable?

Age differences in online behavior in nonacademic environments such as online shopping and purchasing (Sorce, Perotti & Widrick, 2005) or Web search (Grahame, Laberge, & Scialfa, 2004) have been often discussed in the literature, but only a small number of studies have been conducted to examine age differences in adult learners' online learning behavior in academic settings. Those studies revealed significant differences in online behavior due to age; however, it is difficult to conclude age-dependent online behavior based on the studies because of the contextual or missing definitions of "younger" and "older" used in the studies.

Does the adoption of plagiarism-detection software in higher education redu...: EBSCOhost - 0 views

Note 1: Widespread access to the Internet and other electronic media has served as something of a double-edged sword with respect to plagiarism; the Web allows students to plagiarism with cut-and-paste ease, but also allows academics to more easily identify the source of the plagiarized material when plagiarism is suspected(Lyon, Barrett, and Malcolm 2006). Note 2: The Internet allow suspicious student writing to be more quickly compared to other sources using a standard internet search engine, leaving the detection of suspicious writing as the principle challenge. Note 3: given that some systems now permit students to upload their own writing to check for plagiarism in advance of submitting assignments, rates of unintentional plagiarism may drop, making the remaining intentional plagiarism easier to detect. Note 4: Others argue that the adoption of a plagiarism-detection system will not only aid faculty in detecting plagiarism, but will serve as a deterrent to plagiarism in the first place. Note 5: For example, Kraemer (2008) has argued that students who are made aware that plagiarism-detection technologies are in use should, at a minimum, avoid intentionally copying from other sources because of the near certainty that they will be caught. Further, for those students who may unintentionally plagiarize out of ignorance about the rule of citation, the use of plagiarism-detection software may motivate them to better inform themselves about citations and to double-check their own papers for unintentional plagiarism.
