Abstract
Plagiarism is the act of presenting as an idea or work of another author without mentioning it as a source. This practice has been common in academia, especially with the ease offered by the use of the internet. This study aims to verify how students of the Information Systems course understand plagiarism and what possible actions to reduce this practice in academic work. The research was carried out through semi-structured questionnaires, using research and descriptive analysis. The results showed that students do not have full knowledge of plagiarism, not being able to identify specific types of plagiarism, the correct use of citations and the need to place direct and indirect citations of the sources used in their texts.
