ORDONEZ, Claudia Lucía; MEJIA, José Fernando e CASTELLANOS, Sonia. Percepciones estudiantiles sobre el fraude académico: hallazgos y reflexiones pedagógicas. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2006, n.23, pp.37-44. ISSN 0123-885X.
The present article gives information about the findings of the third stage of a research project on academic fraud that has been conducted by the Centro de Investigación y Formación en Educación, CIFE, from the Andes University, Bogotá, with the purpose of developing interventions to fight it. Facing upsetting findings in the first two stages about the frequency of fraudulent behaviors and the reasons given by the students to justify academic fraud, we conducted a detailed qualitative study that analyzes these reasons. From the results we propose a cultural explanation for students decisions on academic fraud, instead of one that only takes into account factors related to individual moral development. Then we use constructivist learning principles and their possible applications to support the need to fight against academic fraud from pedagogical change.
