Communities of Integrity: Engaging Ethically Online for Teaching, Learning, and Research
The COVID-19 crisis challenged us to learn, teach, and work in ways we never had before. As we move further into 2021 more educational institutions are thinking about
|
|
|
|
how online teaching and learning can become a permanent way of offering programs. However, there are still ethical considerations that merit deeper consideration. Before the pandemic, there was 20 years of research from various countries to show there was less misconduct in online courses than in face-to-face courses, yet during COVID-19 academic and research misconduct increased dramatically around the world. So, what happened? And how do we move forward from here? Join us for an evidence-informed keynote about how to support ethical teaching, learning, and researching in online and blended contexts in 2021 and beyond.

Supervision as an arena for teaching and learning academic integrity and research ethics
Academia depends on fostering new generations of researchers and teachers who advance our common knowledge base and in turn, foster new generations. It is not irrelevant how the new generations are equipped with relevant knowledge and competences. What values and behaviors they exhibit depend to a great extent on the academic culture, which they are socialized in. Supervisors play a crucial role in the learning processes.
|

|
|
Students and novice researchers pick up both good and undesirable practices from their supervisors. In my talk I focus on supervision as a key activity through which new generations of academics learn about research ethics and about values and behaviors related to integrity. I answer the question, how does integrity and ethics emerge and manifest themselves in the supervisory relationship, and how do supervisors and supervisees perceive the relationships in terms of integrity, ethics and associated challenges. While focus is on the supervisory relationship, I will also discuss implications for meso and macro levels in a systems perspective, i.e. departmental and national levels.

Evolving an understanding of academic integrity
I have been conducting research on academic integrity, on and off, for over 15 years, with academic integrity becoming the increasing focus of my research. This presentation will summarize my research journey. Starting in 2004, I investigated the prevalence, understanding, and perceived seriousness of plagiarism, and I’ve repeated this investigation every 5 years since. This research has suggested how plagiarism trends are changing, why they might be changing, and how to change them.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, as a psychologist, I’ve become increasingly interested in psychology of plagiarism and cheating, raising questions such as why do students plagiarise, what makes cheaters different from non-cheaters, and how do personality, attitudes, and emotions interact to predict cheating and plagiarism?
