The Office of Instruction and Assessment (OIA) sponsored brown bag seminar.

This informal brown bag session will allow faculty to participate in
discussions around preventing student cheating, both online and in the
classroom.  This session will take place in the OIA, feel free to bring your
lunch.  Noon to 1pm.
Description:
The November 9th, 12 noon, OIA brown bag discussion, "Academic Integrity in
an Electronic World: Student Cheating and Plagiarism," will consider recent
findings about the prevalence of student cheating on examinations and
written assignments.  Attention will be given to the question, is cheating
more common in an online course?
 
Tactics will be shared for designing assessment so as to deter cheating in
unproctored online exams, student written assignments, and online courses.
We will address the advantages and challenges of TurnItIn plagiarism
detection software, D2L quiz, dropbox and discussion tools.
 
Facilitated by Sue South and Gretchen Gibbs. 

We make every effort to have these sessions available when they are most
accessible to campus. However we realize that schedules being what they are
there will always be individuals who cannot attend. In light of this please
see these supplemental readings on the topic.
