Why an Academic Integrity Module?


Initiated as a response to frequent student
defense to plagiarism accusations:


     “I didn’t know it was plagiarism.”
How the module was developed
Founded and developed from three features:

• Examination of academic integrity based on Dalhousie
 Writing Centre experience with students and workshop
 delivery.

• Student scenarios based on FoS academic integrity cases
 provided by Dr. Swapan Dasgupta (names, some details
 redacted).

• An academic integrity quiz developed by Dr. Margie Clow
 Bohan and Professor Lesley Barnes for Academic
 Integrity Week.
Target audience


Students who sincerely do not understand
the concepts and practices of academic
integrity (but who want to).
Learning outcomes


An understanding and ability to answer the
question:


“What is academic integrity, and how
do I achieve it?”

(How do I fulfil these expectations?)
In reality,
Can this goal be achieved solely through
the medium of one online module?


                 No.

But we do see it as part of the conversation
(…a continuing and evolving conversation).
Proximate goals


• A clear presentation of expectations in
straightforward language using case-
based scenarios.

• A reminder of personal responsibility
to seek help in achieving these
expectations.
Why online?
Access:        Reach a large number of students

Flexibility:   Complete at own pace
               Revisit concepts if needed

Consistency: All students exposed to the same concepts
             (but with the hope they will react, question,
             and discuss as they begin to apply the
             concepts in their academic work)

Efficiency:    Covers fundamentals thereby freeing face-to-
               face class time for deeper discussion
Ongoing and evolving project
Improvements:



“I have made this [letter] longer because I have not had the
time to make it shorter.”
             ─ Blaise Pascal "Lettres provinciales", letter 16, 1657

       Drawbacks                        Solutions
• Text heavy                    • ↑ graphics: text ratio

• Students can sign off         • Classroom follow-up
  without thorough
                                • Additional questions (quiz
  understanding
                                  and/or classroom)
• Delivery
                                • Communication
• Time
                                • Platform considerations
  (designers, students, staff
  )
