9. Academic Integrity- Avoid It
What is Academic Integrity?
• Academic integrity is a concept used to address the many facets of authenticity within a student's
work. A student who upholds a high standard of academic integrity maintains that the work he or
she turns in is authentic and true to the knowledge he or she has acquired.
• The technology age has certainly helped people have fast access to any and all information on the
web. Because of this, you will see Academic Integrity becoming more of a standard in educational
institutions as they begin to hold students to higher accountability measures.
• It is important that as you take courses online, you are equipped to appropriately utilize
technology. The Internet can be a powerful research tool. The key is to know how to use it and
what is appropriate.
Academic Integrity means...
• Your work on each assignment will be completely your own
• Your collaboration with another classmate on any assignment will be pre-approved by your
instructor
• You will not practice plagiarism in any form
• You will not allow others to copy your work
• You will not misuse content from the Internet
Consequences for Plagiarizing
• Academic Integrity is something that we take very seriously at our school. If students are caught
violating the academic integrity policy, our school does have specific policies and consequences.
Please think very carefully before sharing your work, taking others' work, or giving others
authority into your account via usernames and passwords. The consequences are not worth it and
you are ultimately cheating yourself.
