BMP3003 Project: Plago Out Game for Promoting Academic Integrity

The 'Plago Out' project presents a game developed to discourage plagiarism and promote academic integrity among university students. The game, designed for BMP3003 Further Academic Skills, involves students spinning a wheel to receive a random essay topic, such as strategic management, and then writing an essay within a time and word limit. The project emphasizes the importance of academic integrity in fostering an honest and supportive university climate, highlighting how plagiarism negatively impacts institutional reputation and student performance. The game aims to improve students' understanding of academic integrity and reduce their inclination to plagiarize by providing a fun, interactive learning experience. References to relevant academic literature on plagiarism and academic integrity are included.

BMP3003 Further Academic Skills
Academic integrity allows diverse interested people in an
organisation to operate with superiority and honesty, which helps
to reduce plagiarism. Students in colleges and universities labor
honestly and do not engage in any behavior that compromises their
integrity. This student emotion encourages them to present their
own work and minimizes their tendency to plagiarize. In a
university setting, the following factors are important:- It is critical
to improve the institution's climate, which can only be
accomplished through fostering academic integrity. Academic
integrity allows students to engage in activities that benefit the
university, making the institution's climate more supportive.
Academic rules related to the college's requirement that its
instructors, students, and other employees operate with honesty
and morale in the organisation. It stipulates that academy members
should not engage in any activities or deed that would jeopardize
academic integrity. Plagiarism has a significant detrimental impact
on academic integrity since it creates an unfavorable impression of
the university in the eyes of outsiders. The performance of
institutions where another majority of students plagiarize suffers,
and their overall college rating suffers.

• Plago out is a program that aims to reduce plagiarism
among students while promoting academic integrity. To
achieve this goal, the institute creates a writing idea
game for pupils, with numerous directions on how to
play it provided below –
• The first step is for the student to meet the login
requirements. This app's login requires institutional
identity as well as some personal information.
• This is a spin game in which students spin the wheel
and one of the available topics appears at random.
• Consider a strategic management essay. Students must
compose an essay on a topic that is related to spin, and
they will be given a specified amount of time and words
to do it.
According to the report, I should create a game that
discourages students from plagiarizing. To meet this
desire, I created Plago Out, a game that assists
students in removing plagiarism from their work. I
discuss the significance of plagiarism and how it has
a significant impact on the bad climate in which
institutions operate. I examine the importance of
academic integrity in a student's personal
development.
