    Building a Regional Academic Integrity Network: Profiling the Growth and Action of the Academic Integrity Council of Ontario (AICO)
    (2019-04-18) Ridgley, Andrea; Miron, Jennifer; McKenzie, Amanda
    Since 2009, the Academic Integrity Council of Ontario (AICO) has provided a forum for practitioners and representatives from post-secondary institutions in Ontario to share information, and to facilitate the establishment and promotion of academic integrity best practices in Ontario colleges and universities. This presentation by members of AICO describes the role of the council and how it serves to connect post-secondary institutions in Ontario on academic integrity-related matters. We’ll discuss the benefits that such association between institutions brings, how collaboration and group problem-solving is encouraged and the accomplishments that working together have brought to date, such as the establishment of a sub-committee to examine contract cheating. Join us to learn about our experiences and lessons learned and to gain information on how to collaborate with like-minded colleagues, gain support, and produce cross-institutional resources.

    Searching Public Websites within Canadian Higher Education: Academic Integrity Tutorials [Infographic]
    (2019-03-01) Eaton, Sarah Elaine; Miron, Jennifer; McBreairty, Laura E.
    This infographic summarizes the results of a year-long research project in which the team reviewed websites of higher education institutions in Canada for information related to academic integrity tutorials and educational modules. Key findings indicate that while such tutorials are found under student services or libraries, it is often difficult to find information, requiring multiple click throughs and specific search terms. The tone of the educational material varied from supportive to punitive. As a result, our recommendations are for institutions to make academic integrity education easier to find and more transparent for students and staff.
