This study aims to explore the shift in students' ethical paradigms regarding the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its relationship to the phenomenon of plagiarism. Using a qualitative approach with the theoretical frameworks of Jean Baudrillard's Simulacra and Pierre Bourdieu's Habitus, this study examines how AI technology is changing the nature of scientific work. The results show the normalization of AI use as a new "digital habitus," where 83% of students consider AI a legitimate research tool, but on the other hand, it creates a condition of "Aesthetics Without Substance." The main findings reveal a reduction in originality where academic honesty is only measured through technical scores (such as Turnitin), rather than intellectual depth. The comparison between authentic and AI-based writing indicates the risk of systemic intellectual atrophy. In conclusion, this study recommends the need for a redesign of educational evaluation systems that focus on processes and verbal dialectics to mitigate the impact of pseudo-competence on college graduates.

Plagiarism remains a critical challenge in academia, including in religious-based educational institutions like Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren). This Community Service Program (PKM) aimed to enhance students' awareness and skills in avoiding plagiarism through scientific writing ethics training at Miftahul Khaer Islamic Boarding School. The method employed capacity building via interactive workshops covering plagiarism definitions, types, impacts, citation techniques (APA Style), paraphrasing, and plagiarism detection tools (e.g., Turnitin). Post-training evaluations revealed significant improvements: participants’ understanding of plagiarism rose from 14.3% to 74.3%, with average comprehension scores increasing from 2.97 to 4.76. Knowledge of plagiarism types achieved an average score of 4.51, though technical proficiency with detection tools remained lower (score: 3.14). Despite internet connectivity limitations, printed learning materials ensured training effectiveness. The initiative successfully fostered an ethical academic culture, with recommendations for sustained programs integrating practical case studies, digital tools, and curriculum integration to strengthen academic integrity in the pesantren environment.

This study focuses on creating a Turnitin tutorial application to track plagiarism using the prototype method approach. The purpose of this application is to make it easier for users to understand and utilize Turnitin as a reliable plagiarism detection tool in academic writing. The prototype method was chosen because it allows for rapid iteration and improvement based on user feedback, which is very important to improve the quality of the application. The development stages include creating an initial prototype, testing functions, and collecting feedback for design refinement. This study aims for the application to be developed to provide clear guidance and effective solutions in identifying and preventing plagiarism, while deepening users' understanding of the use of Turnitin. Thus, this application is expected to strengthen academic integrity and support ethical writing practices through integrated plagiarism detection technology.

Workshop on managing e-journals for study programs at AAL using OJS carried out together with the Publica team from the State University of Malang, the AAL PPM team, and the AAL study program journal management team. The materials for this study program's e-journal management workshop include OJS Guide, Aims and Scope, Mendeley, Scientific Publication Ethics, DOAJ: How to Apply, Article Metadata, Layouting & Creating Templates, Editorial Board, Author Guideline, Call for Paper & Author treatment, and Applications for Writing Scientific Articles. The study program management team carried out the application of the workshop materials in the form of preparing several accounts for OJS, namely: author, editor, reviewer, and copyeditor, re-evaluating the objectives and scope of the study program's scientific journals, using the Mendeley application as a bibliography preparation application, using the Turnitin application to check plagiarism as a form of scientific publication ethics, forming a team of editors and reviewers in journals with the composition required in DOAJ, creating journal article templates, applying several related AI and making it easier to prepare scientific articles. Suggestions for strategies to optimize the management of study program e-journals, related to improving the quality of lecturers' research and publications, namely: providing workshops on lecturers' research from expert sources, providing both moral and material support for lecturers' research activities, socializing several AI applications that can make it easier for someone to write research, and appoint and order in the form of an Order (SP) lecturers to carry out research.  

Abstrak Dewasa ini, berbagai artikel dapat dicari dan diunduh melalui platform yang terkoneksi dengan internet dengan bebas dimana saja dan kapan saja. Akan tetapi kemudahan tersebut tidak dibarengi dengan pengetahuan dan etika dalam menulis karya ilmiah sehingga terindikasi plagiasi. Berdasarkan observasi yang dilakukan tim, masih terdapat sebagian besar mahasiswa dalam penyusunan karya tulis ilmiah baik makalah dan artikel asal jiplak tanpa menuliskan sumbernya, tidak melakukan parafrase serta tidak melakukan pengecekan dengan aplikasi turnitin sehingga terdeteksi plagiasi. Pengabdian ini dilakukan dengan metode ceramah, diskusi dan pendampingan melalui lima tahapan yaitu observasi, perencanaan, pelaksanaan, pendampingan serta evaluasi. Hasil pengabdian yang telah dilaksanakan menunjukkan bahwa dengan adanya pelatihan memberikan pengetahuan dan pemahaman peserta terhadap penggunaan turnitin sebagai alat dalam pengecekan tingkat kesamaan sehingga terhindar plagiasi. Hal tersebut didasarkan atas perbandingan hasil pre test dan post test peserta pelatihan yang dilaksanakan sebelum dan sesudah pelatihan.
