Resumo(s)

In today’s digital society, knowledge is built through relationships with others and the environment. Schools have a vital role in promoting and develop- ing skills in children and youth until they complete compulsory education. The use of technology to access and share information is unavoidable and has led to cyber-plagiarism to become a significant problem faced by educational institu- tions, particularly among primary, secondary, and high school students. Digital citizenship skills such as researching, selecting, collecting, and processing infor- mation through critical thinking are necessary to prevent cyber-plagiarism. Its use raises ethical concerns and undermines the fundamental values of a demo- cratic society. This work reflects on the practice of cyber-plagiarism by students, defines the concepts of plagiarism and cyber-plagiarism, identifies their causes and consequences, and proposes strategies to fight against it in schools. A nar- rative literature review methodology, which includes national and international research sources and official documents, is used to present guidelines for educa- tional institutions and communities to adopt common strategies to prevent cyber- plagiarism. The work also suggests fundamental strategies for the initial and con- tinuous training of teachers to develop skills that promote digital citizenship and prevent cyber-plagiarism.
