Challenge - Creating a culture of academic honesty

This webinar is based on empirical studies that show the majority of academic-integrity issues reported by colleges and universities have less to do with purposeful cheating (although it does occur) than with "crimes of opportunity." Students who feel that they have run out of time on assignment, who feel that they must obtain a certain score on a test to stay in their program, or who perceive course outcomes as not meaningful for their professional practice—these are the students who are tempted to take shortcuts, and they are the students you are most likely to be able to reach through the use of simple strategies for creating a culture of academic honesty.

Key Takeaway

Research tells us that academic integrity is an issue best addressed on the "front end," through communication and culture building, rather than on the "back end," after dishonest conduct has occurred. You will learn core strategies to implement that make academic dishonesty less likely to happen in the first place.

Overview

This webinar addresses the different concerns about—and definitions of —“originality” across the units within higher-education institutions; provides a framework of three key types of academic-integrity strategies and matches those strategies to the needs of instructors, departments, and institutions; and offers examples of each academic-integrity strategy, best practices for each, and practical implementation tips.

Faculty members utilize many tactics to help ensure that the work their students perform is conducted under rigorous conditions, and is created by or carried out by the students themselves. Especially with the rise of online learning, academic integrity has created a business model, with companies like Turnitin offering to compare student submissions against large databases of previous student work.

A lot of campuses, though, are finding that the big-database approach to academic integrity isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution (Lancaster & Culwin, 2007). That’s because there are various definitions of “originality” across the units of higher-education institutions.

Faculty members can undertake several specific actions to foster academic integrity across campus and in their courses. This webinar will share concrete practices you can use tomorrow to communicate expectations clearly for ethical conduct, which is much more effective than it is to have to catch cheaters after the fact.

Moving from “I caught you” to “I taught you” involves more than just sending student work to a database, but it’s worth the effort to understand originality regarding the expectations of the various disciplines across your campus.

This webinar is based on best practices gleaned from more than 25 years of classroom and online teaching in higher education, as well as research into the most effective methods for creating a climate of academic integrity on campus. The theoretical framework is my own, developed to help match academic-integrity techniques (database-submission, sanction statements, and the like) with specific types of assessments (papers, exams, projects, portfolio and group work).

Objectives

  • Define originality specifically for the sciences, humanities, and social sciences
  • Customize academic-integrity strategies to the discipline taught and level of rigor expected of learners
  • Adopt academic-integrity strategies to create and sustain a climate of ethical behavior
  • 2-year & 4-year institutions
  • Academic Affairs/Instruction
  • Faculty (full and part-time)
  • Dean of Instruction
  • Department Chairs
  • Student Code Of Conduct Officers
  • Student Life Directors
  • First-Year Experience Coordinators
  • Summer Bridge Coordinators
  • Orientation Directors
  • Any educator interested in promoting academic integrity on campus
“Academic integrity is often perceived as a task of catching cheaters. While that’s part of it, we can deter more dishonest behavior by asking a few core questions about what we teach and what we expect from our students.”

Funding is a little tight, how many workshops can I get for $XX?

You can buy the entire StudentLingo package (50 workshops) or we offer several a la carte options. Unlike a lot of other software companies, we don’t charge per user, so we can work with any budget.

This is a feature of our platform, but comes at an additional cost. With the admin view, you get access to more advanced reporting, and you have it in real time. With the standard membership, you get monthly reports.


How have other schools leveraged reporting?
  • One of our partners, College of Southern Nevada, used StudentLingo to measure learning outcomes. in a study, one class had access to StudentLingo and the other cohort did not. 92% of the cohort with access to StudentLingo earned a whole letter grade higher than the cohort without StudentLingo.
  • A lot of our partners use the data to justify funding for grants, operating dollars, or for new program development.
  • The evaluation data is particularly useful in identifying what type of learning students prefer and the qualitative takeaways from viewing the workshop.
  • Some of our partners use the data to connect with their student information system, like Banner or Peoplesoft. 
  • I think a great way to get started on how you want to use the data is to ask yourself some questions:
    1. How will I know if StudentLingo was successful?
    2. What do I hope students will gain from access to StudentLingo?
    3. What data is important for me to know in order to show that StudentLingo is a worthwhile purchase?
What is TutorLingo?

TutorLingo is a flexible tutor training plaform and can be purchased at the Bronze, Silver or Gold level to meet your training needs.  Every level consists of a series of 9 Core online training modules that prepare tutors by providing the basic skills necessary to support their peers in becoming more independent and strategic learners. The Silver & Gold purchasing options include TLNow training and our Additional Level 1 or Level 2 training topics, all of which help to achieve Level 1 & 2 of the CRLA Certification.  See our pricing guide for details.


Should the TutorLingo trainings be viewed in any particular order?

No, each training is a stand-alone workshop, and they can be viewed in any order.


Do you offer micro-credentialing for Tutoring Center staff?

Yes, we offer multiple micro-credentials which would serve Tutoring Center teams including Tutoring Center Administration, Mastering Service Excellence, Fostering A Culturally Responsive Campus Through Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Supervisory Leadership: Maximizing Productivity & Staff Development.


What is the CRLA?

The CRLA is a group of student-oriented professionals active in the fields of reading, learning assistance, developmental education, tutoring, and mentoring.

A fews years ago, Innovative Educators partnered with the CRLA to create supplementary training modules. Our training supports learning centers in achieving level 1 certification through CRLA.

Yes. CRLA members receive a 10% discount on TutorLingo.
