Abstract
This chapter has been written to communicate two key points. The first message conveys the present condition of dealing with plagiarism, which has shifted from identifying and addressing academic misconduct to fostering academic integrity in Indonesia. This was motivated by the issuance of the Regulation of the Minister of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia Number 39 of 2021 on Academic Integrity in Producing Scientific Works. This modification resulted in a reclassification of academic infractions, namely, violations committed in an attempt to produce scientific works and personal violations in the academic settings.
The second message is sharing best practices that have been promoted since 2012 in an effort to combat plagiarism more effectively. In the new normal period, the differentiation between plagiarism, imitation, and copyright infringement and efficient ways to avoid plagiarism has been consistently pushed and has grown increasingly widespread online. In addition, it is believed that attempts to generate key indicators (breach of the truth, trust violation, and potential risks) as diagnostic aids are more effective for anticipating changes in methodologies and technical improvements in the production of scientific works for the domains of education, research, and community service.
