Institution-Wide Approaches to Academic Integrity, Working with Colleagues and Students
Abstract: “Skills and knowledge of undergraduate students, on topics such as academic writing, use of sources, paraphrasing etc, are sometimes overestimated by their subject tutors and the students themselves. Such skills deficits can lead to allegations of plagiarism or academic misconduct. This webinar will consider ways that higher education institutions can work with colleagues and students to avoid and overcome these difficulties.”
