78. Let’s Talk … What is academic integrity? How you would react to an instance of academic dishonesty?
79. One Definition Academic integrity is a commitment, even in the face of adversity, to five fundamental values: honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility. From these values flow principles of behavior that enable academic communities to translate ideals to action. Center for Academic Integrity
80. Some quotes Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people. -- Spencer Johnson Those who think it is permissible to tell white lies soon grow color--blind. -- Austin O'Malley Integrity -- When you do the right thing even though no one is watching. -- Anon
81. What is Considered Academic Dishonesty? Brainstorm as may specific examples or types of academic dishonesty as you can. 5 minutes! http://www.utdallas.edu/judicialaffairs/UTDJudicialAffairs-maintainingintegrity.html

84. UTD Definition Plagiarism – deliberate adoption or reproduction of ideas or words or statements of another person as one’s own without acknowledgement (examples: turning in a paper written by another person or buying a paper from a commercial source and failing to properly attribute quotations within a paper) http://www.utdallas.edu/judicialaffairs/UTDJudicialAffairs-maintainingintegrity.html

91. Why do students cheat? "The real world is terrible…People will take other people's materials and pass it on as theirs. I'm numb to it already. I'll cheat to get by." "A lot of people think it's like you're not really there to learn anything. You're just learning to learn the system." A Cheating Crisis in America’s Schools http://abcnews.go.com/primetime/story?id=132376&page=1
93. Why do students cheat? "There's other people getting better grades than me and they're cheating. Why am I not going to cheat? It's kind of almost stupid if you don’t…” "Everything is about the grade that you got in the class. Nobody looks at how you got it.” "You don't want to be a dork and study for eight hours a day. You want to go out and have fun." A Cheating Crisis in America’s Schools http://abcnews.go.com/primetime/story?id=132376&page=1

110. Plagiarism Prevention as a Skill Our Response - Helping Students Learn Understand why students commit academic dishonesty Discussion and education Design assessments to reduce opportunity Use tools for education
111. Discuss and Educate Discuss what "plagiarism" means Discuss why plagiarism is wrong Make the consequences clear Start off with clear expectations Assign specific questions or topics Require students to submit thesis statements, introductions, outlines, or drafts http://www.plagiarism.org/learning_center/preventing_guidlines.html

116. Assessment/Activity Design Use low stakes assessments (quizzes in place of or in addition to exams) Use iterative process (do drafts of papers, etc.) Use active learning assessments (problem-based learning; group activities) Use inventive assessment (not just what can be found in a book – apply this concept to a movie, eg.)
117. Designing Assignments Assign specific questions or topics Submit thesis statements, introductions, outlines, or drafts Annotate bibliography Assign oral presentations Require recent and printed sources Reflect on the composition process Encourage concision

119. Your Turn Create at least 2 scenarios that you can use with your students to teach them about cheating and plagiarism.
120. Consider…. Would you get on a plane if the pilot could work only half the controls? Would you buy a computer if it only had ¼ of the keys? Would you buy a textbook if it ended half-way through – in the middle of a sentence?
The DMCA was enacted in October 1998 primarily to bring U.S. copyright law into conformity with provisions of two World Intellectual Property Organization treaties to which the U.S. is a signatory. --- prohibits devices designed to circumvent digital anti-copying protections.
"scholarly or educational materials, art works, musical compositions and dramatic and non-dramatic literary works related to the author's academic or professional field regardless of the medium of expression...." Telecourse materials created by faculty under the same or similar circumstances as would ordinarily lead faculty to produce typical or more traditional works will be treated as scholarly works and will belong to the author. Faculty members should note that undergraduate students own copyright in their works and faculty members must obtain their permission to incorporate student work in a faculty-authored work.works created under contracts between the U.T. System or a component and a faculty author, or by employees, other than faculty, within the scope of their employment, will belong to the Board.
Kinko's' practice of unauthorized photocopying of multiple-page excerpts from copyrighted works (including chapters of books and articles from periodicals) to create anthologies (coursepacks) for sale to students for a profit violated the publishers' copyrights. The copyrighted works infringed by Kinko's included hardback and paperback editions of in-print and out-of-print trade and professional works as well as text- books. The copied materials ranged in length from 14 to 110 pages and from 5% to 24% of the works.
Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press and SAGE Publications and supported by the Association of American Publishers (AAP), charges that GSU officials are violating the law by systematically enabling professors to provide students with digital copies of copyrighted course readings published by the plaintiffs and numerous other publishers without those publishers’ authorization. The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief to bring an end to such practices, but does not seek monetary damages.

Amount is measured both quantitatively and qualitatively. No exact measures of allowable quantity exist in the law.Guidelines exist – from Congress.
This factor means fundamentally that if you make a use for which a purchase of an original theoretically should have occurred—regardless of your personal willingness or ability to pay for such purchase—then this factor may weigh against fair use. "Effect" is closely linked to "purpose." If your purpose is research or scholarship, market effect may be difficult to prove. If your purpose is commercial, then adverse market effect is often presumed. Occasional quotations or photocopies may have no adverse market effects, but reproductions of software and videotapes can make direct inroads on the potential markets for those works.
Skeptical, arrive at college with established methods of sorting, doubting or ignoring information.We must respect them as thinkers, even though their thinking skills are underdeveloped and base knowledge shallow.
Knowledge-able students find, sort, analyze, share, discuss, critique and create information. They CREATE knowledge.
In fact, McCabe says, a survey of more than 4,000 U.S. and Canadian schools revealed half of all faculty members admitted ignoring cheating at least once.
