Abstract

The article is devoted to the foundations of the formation of academic integrity in the international arena and in the national space. It is indicated that education is a priority for any modern state, because the future of Ukraine depends on the graduates of educational institutions. The educational process is dynamic, as it is filled with constant reforms, modernizations, improvements, as well as the admission of new talented and capable students. Along with innovations in the educational process, new challenges and problems in obtaining quality education appear. More and more students underestimate the importance of quality education and use mechanisms to facilitate the performance of scientific works. The article emphasizes that such mechanisms are defined as "academic dishonesty" in national legislation. The peculiarities of the implementation of academic integrity in the 20th century were considered and the fundamental concepts in this field were analyzed. Attention is focused on the problems and prerequisites of violation of integrity by students. In the article, special attention is paid to the question of the prerequisites for the students' desire not to observe the rules of academic integrity. A survey was conducted among students regarding the causes of academic dishonesty. As a result, it was established that the teacher's motivation greatly affects the students' desire to learn. Also, according to the results of the survey, it was determined that the inflated volume of scientific works, and requirements that do not correspond to the intellectual level according to the year of study, encourages the use of plagiarism. It was concluded that educational institutions should control this issue. It is also necessary to convey to students the idea that in case of non-compliance with the principles of academic integrity, the development of science is in danger, because it is young scientists who are the catalyst for change.
