This workshop is co-sponsored by the Office of Academic Integrity and the Center for Teaching Excellence.

Description

Reducing instances of academic dishonesty before they happen can make your life easier. What can Teaching Assistants do to promote academic integrity in their classes? Including the University's Honor Code in your written syllabus, and articulating potential consequences for violations up-front, are the first steps. This workshop will examine current issues of cheating and plagiarism on campus, including strategies used by students. We will discuss how to prevent academic dishonesty, as well as how to confront cheating behavior. The University's procedures to resolve academic dishonesty will also be reviewed. Remember that by proactively addressing academic integrity, we encourage learning and make our teaching more enjoyable.
