Academic dishonesty

Academic dishonesty means cheating on your school work. When someone is academic dishonest, they are not doing their own work, but instead they are copying work or using someone else's work and trying to pass it off as their own. This can be very serious, because if you cheat in school, you could get in trouble with your teacher and even get kicked out of school. It's better to always do your own work and be honest about it.
