Abstract
The purpose of this study is to find a way to educate university students on writing ethics. For this study, 3,374 liberal arts class assignments were analyzed using Copy Killer test results.
 As a result of analyzing the plagiarism rate based on students’ gender, class method, and type of assignment, there was no difference in the plagiarism rate according to the gender of the student. There is a difference in the plagiarism rate between online and on-campus courses. This may indicate that an undergraduate student is more likely to engage in plagiarism when writing an assignment for an online course. There was also a correlation between the type of assignments and the plagiarism rate. Book reviews, columns, and academic essays showed the highest frequency with a plagiarism rate of 0 to 10%, and books with a plagiarism rate of 60% or higher showed the highest frequency in book reviews.
 Instructors should pay attention to students’ assignments and make it mandatory to check for plagiarism. However, since plagiarism is reduced only by checking the plagiarism rate, it is necessary to repeatedly teach writing ethics in class.
