| Resumo: | The present study aims to analyze studies which show the knowledge of the Brazilian higher education students about plagiarism, demonstrating the role higher education institutions play in the face of academic plagiarism. This issue arises because of the globalization of Internet and the easy access to information. It is a bibliographic-descriptive study in which Scielo and Periódico CAPES were used as database to select publications. The type of study, sample population, data collection tool, questions used in the questionnaires and the most relevant results constituted the meditated variants. It shows that there is a greater data similarity among the articles. In addition, most students demonstrate they do not have enough knowledge about plagiarism and its law, and Internet is the most widely used tool among them for doing academic work. Thus, the information gathered here may raise new studies in order to elucidate the reality of this crime in educational institutions in Brazil. |
