Learning Commons:Student Orientation/Archive/Academic Integrity Resources

Using Bloom's taxonomy for learning as a guide, we're developing some guiding questions to help you think about what you might create (in a digital format) to help students learn.

Remember

how do we define academic integrity?
what does it mean to students?

Understand

what does plagiarism look like?
what does good scholarly work look like?
what does plagiarism look like in other media (besides print) - think video, images, music?

Apply

is there some criteria that can help you check for academic integrity? If there was, what would it include?

Analyze

from examples, can you judge - which one(s) demonstrate plagiarism? which one(s) demonstrate good scholarly work?

Evaluate

if you were an instructor - how would you decide if a work was plagiarized or good, scholarly work?

Create

from examples of plagiarism - could you change them to good scholarly work?

Resources
