Abstract
AbstractEthical behavior in academic work is an important standard to ensure effective and quality outcomes. As a result, special focus should be dedicated to dealing with unethical behavior associated with information technology use in higher educational institutions in sub-Saharan Africa. This book chapter examines the world of unethical information technology use in sub-Saharan Africa to find out how and why it has become so rife among young adults in the universities. Based on extensive literature reviews, this chapter reveals that the lack of stringent measures to deter students’ plagiarism and cheating leads considerably to unethical use of information technology. This chapter offers recommendations on how unethical behavior among students in higher educational institutions in sub-Saharan African countries can be curtailed.KeywordsHigher educationLiterature reviewInformation technologyUnethical behavior
