We are UGC Certified AND NAD registered university

 

In my article I will provide information regarding UGC certified universities and also about NAD and  what  is the  role of  NAD and  UGC below are  the  some  points which  will also  benefit  for distance  students.

·         Higher education is growing in India and there are around fifty-five school boards, three hundred fifty-nine universities, one hundred twenty three deemed universities, two hundred sixty private universities, forty seven central universities and two hundred sixty private universities. There are around hundred and seven institutions such as IISc, IITs, IIMs, NITs, IISERs, IIITs, NITIE and twelve other institutions are there which are  funded by central government .

·         These institutions Provide degrees as well as academic awards, diploma and mark sheets and certificate along with the evaluation report. Several institutes are there which provide certificates or diploma under various ministries.

·         Thos who are looking for job or in to higher studies require a convincing and genuine and suitable   system to access and validate the academic awards recovery of academic records which are maintained in paper form is awkward. Academic records which  are maintained in  paper  have  high  risk  of  spoiling  and  there are chances of  forgery . Student face difficulty in getting copy of   their certificates or markeshets when they have lost it or it’s destroyed.

·         Student will be able to access or retrieve their academic awards and can verify with the help of Digital depository that would allow educational institutions, employs to access documents and this will help to finish fraud practice.

·         Validity: The accountability for correctness and genuineness of certificate records and uniqueness of the students depends on academic institutes & universities. So, they need to make sure that certificate data is carefully verified and authorised people lodge the records in NAD underneath their digital signatures.

·         The anticipation is that NAD will radically decrease the occurrence of fake degrees. For example, the Delhi Police caught a gang which were providing false educational certificates and degree in month of February and two hundred fake documents were recovered from them. 

·         The  government  is  pushing  but  it’s not compulsory  for academic records , and at same time  the  historical data may  not be updated with the  Adhar numbers  in near   future universities and institutes will maintain the  data  as they have  been  updated by  the  administrative  authorities  . In near future NAD will be compulsory for all universities and institution 

·         Roles & tasks of Academic Institutions/Universities:

 

  • Academic Institutions/Universities Provide certificate templates, master data etc. to the NAD.
  • They provide  data of educational awards for updating on NAD
  • Academic Institutions/Universities are accountable for correctness of data of academic awards
  • staff  is trained in NAD system
  • information about Awards  is  Uploaded  and seed with Aadhaar and Mobile Number
  • Verified Digital Data in set format
  • Data is available with signed images and certified template.
  • student identity is  included with Aadhaar and  Mobile Number
  • Aadhaar and  Mobile Number can be  updated  in a certificate record

·         Why is NAD Important for Students?

·         NAD provide, Certificate Verification services delivered online and maintains certificate records this helps in saving administrative process NAD have well organised IT system and helps in providing system for academic records

·         Distance Education is a capability thru which college students can pursue the favoured path even though they are no longer bodily current in the school room of the college/ college presenting the course. Registration for the distance schooling mode is an ideal option for a scholar if they – are pushed for time, does now not have the mandatory sources or has some geological limitations.

·         However, no longer all publications presented in the distance mode will add cost to one’s CV due to the fact there is an excessive opportunity that the path can also now not be recognised.

University Should Allow At least 30% Plagiarism in Humanity Subject

 

Plagiarism has been the most complicated educational evil in academic and knowledge publications, wherein contents of other authors are used by people without due acknowledgement to the original author. There are various do's and don'ts which one should generally follow while making a publication however with the increase in the plagiarism percentage and in order to maintain the integrity of the academics, the UGC was in process of bringing in regulations to prevent this social evil.

 

·         What Is Not Plagiarism?

 

a)    All quoted work reproduced with all necessary permission and/or attribution.

b)    All references, bibliography, table of content, preface and acknowledgements.

c)    All generic terms, laws, standard symbols and standards equations.

d)    Exclude common knowledge or coincidental terms, up to fourteen (14) consecutive words.

 

1.    Up to 38% student’s dissertation getting rejected because of plagiarism.

The word plagiarism is frightening to the students and young researchers as they are often penalized for unintentional plagiarism! This can happen, if they are not aware or not taught properly how to make plagiarism-free materials.

Some students will be accused of plagiarism; do you know why? After about months of research, their research paper will be rejected because of plagiarism. When students checked the journal report, they found that their paper was accused of plagiarism and with a lot of percentage. The reason is that their manuscript can be previously uploaded as a preprint. It takes students months to solve the problem and removing the manuscript from the database of the preprint.

 

 

2.    Common subject like management, law, social subject has got much similar content so that plagiarism tolerance level must be 30% because many universities asking plagiarism up to 10% which almost impossible in humanity subjects.

 

Plagiarism, or passing someone else’s work as your own, is not a new phenomenon in research. It has gained greater attention with the advent of technology that has made it easier to uncover instances of plagiarism. However, not all types of plagiarism are alike. When analysing whether something is an act of plagiarism, the determination of whether it was intentional or unintentional, plays an important role. Whether intended or unintended, there is no excuse for plagiarism and the consequences are often the same. However, plagiarism may be accidental if it occurred because some terms are very alike in some subjects, or unintentional paraphrasing. Students are likely to commit accidental plagiarism, so universities should stress on the importance of education about this form of plagiarism.

 

3.    There are many plagiarism tools available but their reports mismatch with university report so it's leads to confusion to students.

 

Some software’s like Turnitin, Etc are available to check the plagiarism for thesis as well as for research paper. If university have subscribed any of this software’s, then students use it before submission of thesis. After analysing the work using the software, they will get the certificate. If it has more than the allowed percentage, then students can do the modification depending upon the suggestions given in the certificate. Even for using others work or ideas, not only citing the original resource, try to rewrite the ideas or thoughts in your own way, don't copy the source directly. But the main problem is there are many different tools available & everyone shows different data which confuses the students.

The new UGC regulations, titled the "University Grants Commission (Promotion of Academic Integrity and Prevention of Plagiarism in Higher Educational Institutions) Regulations, 2018", brings about a special emphasis on the need for a more aware and integrity driven conduct of academicians indulging in any research or academic writing.

 

While talking to the Media, Dr. Prakash Bhosale said “With these regulations, the Institutions has a core responsibility to ensure working in direction of curbing the plagiarized contents and uphold academic integrity. With access to unlimited information on a subject matter, it is easy to compile the content without putting efforts of analyzing the contents for relevance. However, with strict regulations the students who are writing their PhD, Dissertation, Thesis, Research paper, MBA Project reports will be under a liability to ensure original creation which will ultimately help the author with overall academic and intellectual growth but some leniency should be shown towards the students & should allow at least 30% Plagiarism in Humanity Subject”
