Academic integrity, e-cheating & contract cheating

Upholding academic integrity and the evolution of student misconduct

Ask any institution and they are likely to confess their challenges in upholding academic integrity; particularly in light of hybrid and online learning environments. Student misconduct is evolving, with basic forms such as ‘copy and paste’ plagiarism competing with more sophisticated methods, the rise in commercial contract cheating, and use of digital devices for e-cheating. Featuring insights from industry and academia, we’ve curated this collection of downloadable resources, blogs and videos to help you to navigate these developments in academic integrity.
