Regarding the issues of "cheating in exams" and "fake papers", the National Development and Reform Commission also "spoken".
At a press conference held by the National Development and Reform Commission on July 16, spokesperson Meng Wei introduced the progress of the construction of the social credit system.
In the field of governance of paper fraud and cheating in exams, she said that she has "zero tolerance" for the governance of paper fraud and cheating in exams, and "veto it" in promotion and use, commendation and incentives, and participate in projects, etc.
In fact, it is no longer a "new thing" about strengthening the construction and governance of academic integrity in higher education institutions. For example:
In July last year, the Ministry of Education issued a notice that it will severely investigate and punish the purchase and writing of degree dissertations in colleges and universities;
In April this year, In the latest revised "Implementation Rules for the Management Regulations on Disciplinary Punishment of Tsinghua University Students" released by of Tsinghua University, the penalties for academic misconduct have been increased, and those who plagiarize thesis can be expelled from school;
In June this year, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Further Promoting the Spirit of Scientists and Strengthening Work Style and Academic Style Construction", which proposed a number of targeted measures to address many academic style issues that have performed more prominently in recent years, such as academic dishonesty and academic impetuousness.
can be seen that from the school to the society to the credit system, the seriousness of academic integrity has been continuously improved. And from a series of measures, the whole society's tolerance for academic fraud has become lower and lower, which also means that the cost of fraud has been increasing again and again. This is to reverse the so-called cleverness of "a big copy of articles in the world".
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, academic integrity only involves personal integrity, and it seems that it is okay to sacrifice it in the face of many choices that are related to the future.
But in fact, whether it is academic ethics or personal morality, it will affect the overall academic, educational research level and the image of the academic community, and will even have an impact on industry achievements and social development.
If you leave the issue of academic integrity alone, if you continue to do so, "bad money drives out good money", the problem of academic misconduct will grow and form a negative demonstration effect. Once the atmosphere is formed, it will have a negative impact on the overall scientific research environment of the country.
Therefore, the ultimate goal of measures and rules is to in addition to punishment, it is necessary to improve the academic ethics of all academic participants, and thus form an environment to stimulate innovation awareness, thereby driving the scientific research level of the industry and even the country.
Judging from the investment in scientific research and the importance it attaches to scientific research, China has become a major scientific research country. To become a strong country in scientific research, overall academic integrity is a must-pass.
