一文多用合理乎？學生自我抄襲行為及因應之道初探

Is It Reasonable to Recycle One’s Own Work? An Exploratory Study on Self-plagiarism by Students

本文對學生一文多用（自我抄襲）行為的相關議題進行了初步的探討。學生常見的自我抄襲行為，包含將報告重複繳交至多個科目，或是以類似的報告參加兩個以上的學術競賽。本文採文獻分析法，從兩個面向進行分析，一是探討學生自我抄襲的原因、樣態及感知，二是檢視與我國大學及高中有關自我抄襲的規範，以及教師在自我抄襲教育上應具有的認知及態度。綜整上述分析結果，本文提出了四點建議，分別是建立自我抄襲的認定標準、如何避免自我抄襲的指控、授課教師的認知與態度，以及學校與外部學術環境應有的規範。本文期藉由各項學生自我抄襲議題的提出，能讓更多教師、學生及各界先進更加關注此類看似不嚴重，但卻可能不利於學生知識學習的行為。

A preliminary study on behaviors of text-recycling (self-plagiarism) by students is presented. Most common behaviors of students’ self-plagiarism are the submission of report or homework to two or more courses, or the reuse of work, composition, or report in different academic competitions. Based on the document analysis, two aspects of students’ self-plagiarism are investigated. Firstly, the reasons, patterns and perception of students’ self-plagiarism are firstly discussed. Secondly, the regulations of self-plagiarism made by universities and senior high schools of Taiwan are surveyed. The perception and attitude of the faculty and teachers for self-plagiarism are also discussed. According to present analysis, four suggestions are proposed. They are (1) to establish the judgement standard of self-plagiarism, (2) to instruct students to avoid self-plagiarism, (3) to promote teachers’ perception and correct attitude, and (4) to create the regulations in universities and schools. It is expected that the behaviors of students’ self-plagiarism which may be harmful to learning will attract more attentions from teachers and students.
