Graduation papers testing software sales

In order to prevent large-scale plagiarism of student papers, some universities have introduced anti-plagiarism software. Do not think this is the birth of a large number of business opportunities - businesses appear online, fees for students to test papers, so that buyers can modify the paper in a timely manner.

In the middle or late April, major college graduates were approaching graduation, and a large number of merchants selling "paper anti-plagiarism software" emerged on the Internet to help students identify possible plagiarism.

These sellers claim to use a professional paper testing service system, such as Wanfang, HowNet, etc., to help detect whether the plagiarism will be detected in advance, a price of starting price ranging from 100 to 400 yuan, and can even buy.

Detecting paper similarity At present, when searching for “paper detection” on Taobao, many webpage information will pop up automatically. Businesses are pursuing the slogan of “Rapid Test Paper Repeat Rate”, “Paper Similarity Rate Test Results, Just 3 Minutes” and “Guaranteed Successful Paper Passing”. Many businesses can be described as brilliant achievements. Selling 1,000 pieces of goods in 30 days is not a legend. .

The Morning Post reporter found an online shop at Taobao Mall. The company’s name is Changchun Feidu Electronics Co., Ltd., and the shop owner stated that “not only the graduate thesis, but also the undergraduate thesis, journal paper, etc.” is purchased, and the group purchase price is 180 yuan for more than 3 persons. Customers with tight deadlines can also be tested separately, once for 200 yuan, and the test results can be released in 3 minutes. According to the store’s sales records, 1,213 pieces were sold in one month, and nearly 30 customers were placed on the same day on April 20.

It is not this one that sells hot. It is understood that as long as the buyer submits the word format document directly to the shop owner, after testing, a detailed test report will be generated. The test report includes the overall copy ratio of the paper, the origin of the similar documents, the author, and the time of publication, and similar text labels. Red, easy for the author to modify. Pricing or in terms of number of words, ten thousand words in 1 to 10 yuan, or a direct price, ranging from 100 yuan to 400 yuan in price, the group purchase price is cheaper. In addition, many businesses also played the slogan of "re-examination for a 20% discount."

Some shopkeepers said that most buyers are students.

"Test for peace of mind"

A college graduate student said that the school is about to enter the stage of blind screening of papers, and many of the nearby students have found online paper testing agencies. The two students around me did a test on the Internet and found that the repetition rate of the paper was about 30%. Afterwards, both of them modified the paragraph that marked the plagiarism, so they wanted to try it. "Although the tutor said that the school will go through the software test and send it to the blind audit, but still do not rest assured, they first test it, regardless of the test results, ask for peace of mind."

There are even students who call their own software testing company to purchase software. According to Sun Xiongyong, director of the Beijing CNKI Scientific Research Integrity Management System Research Center, “A lot of students called to ask us how to buy this system, but because of professional ethics, we are all euphemistically rejected.”

Sun Xiongyong stated that CNKI's “Defective Dispositional Behavior Detection” system software is only available to institutional users in academic and scientific fields such as journals, major universities, or education departments. It also has to sign confidentiality agreements and the software is not open to the public. Nor does it provide services to individual consumers.

Where does the so-called paper test software on the Internet come from? Sun Xiongyong speculated that it may be the internal staff of the relevant unit and violated the signed use agreement, but it does not rule out the use of other testing software by some merchants under the name of CNKI.

At present, the company is conducting an investigation and has sealed the accounts of some sellers on Taobao.

Universities: Software limitations In recent years, anti-plagiarism software has caused many controversies. Fudan University, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, and East China Normal University have introduced CNKI software systems. However, most colleges and universities only use it in graduate students, and undergraduate students use less. Some universities, such as the University of Science and Technology, have not introduced any paper testing software. At present, they are still adopting a humanized method of monitoring.

The teacher of the Office of Academic Affairs of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics said that the school’s use of “anti-plagiarism” software is mainly applicable to postgraduate colleges, and it is only partially extracted and examined in undergraduate departments. After using the software to identify, the teacher will also do related inspections and audits, not completely adopting the results given by the software system. “Before students had to plagiarize large sections of papers and had anti-plagiarism software, at least everyone would attach importance to the paper and would not fool them.”

However, some universities and colleges like Jiji University have not introduced any thesis testing system. Students graduated papers are approved by the supervisors, evaluation teachers, and defense teachers.

In this regard, the Liberal Degree Division of the graduate school of the university, Li Li, stated that "the anti-plagiarism system software still has certain limitations. Especially in academic opinions and professional aspects, there will be a phenomenon of 'misjudgment'." She pointed out that the use of papers Anti-plagiarism detection software, a temporary solution, can not fundamentally solve student plagiarism.
