International Day of Action for Academic Integrity Oct 16
The ICAI (International Center for Academic Integrity) run an annual event, to help students understand what Academic Integrity is. It used to be the “Day of Action Against Contract Cheating” – though as many of us noted, “Contract cheating isn’t the only form of academic misconduct.
This year the theme is “All hands on deck: Making Academic Integrity Everyone’s job”
There are a series of events that are running throughout the day, between 08:15 & 22:45 (it’s a global event, they’re not necessarily expecting everyone to be at all of it!
Event Schedule – and a booking link.
