Do not use a computer to harm others
Do not interfere with others' computer work
Do not snoop through others' files
Do not use a computer to steal
Do not use a computer to lie
Do not use software that you haven't paid for
Do not use others' computer resources without permission
Do not take others' intellectual property
Consider the social impact of your programs and systems
Use computers in a way that respects others

Q2. Why do you think these violations occur?

These violations occur because there are many essays or research papers available in the internet to download. Because it's available, students may just copy the work and change some words to make it seem like theirs.

Q1. Which of the Ten Ethical Computing Guidelines do you think students violate most often?

I believe students violate more the commandment that states do not use a computer to steal. Many students use computers to plagiarize other people work that are in the internet. For example, students may download other students essay and hand it in as their own.

Q3. What do you think could be done to reduce or eliminate such unethical behavior?

I believe to reduce or eliminate this unethical behavior is by not having work available to view. Maybe if there can be a passcode or permission to view certain documents.
