What is academic integrity
We created this definition of academic integrity with our students:
“Academic integrity is a commitment to good study practices and shared values which ensures that my work is a true expression of my own understanding and ideas, giving credit to others where their work contributes to mine.”
You’ll need to develop the academic skills to keep track of where you find ideas and information, and to reference them accurately in your work.
