Statement Of Academic Integrity

Academic integrity is the code of academic conduct that is set forth by educational institutions. It is the catalyst for the mission of most institutions. The expectation is that students will be honest and responsible as it pertains to academia. It defines the academic rigor in research and academic publishing and gives value to the institution (Spain & Robes, 2011). Academic integrity also applies to the way that an individual behaves both personally and professionally, and is a true measure to the worth of the degree that is earned. This standard of behavior applies to both students and faculty. In short this is just thief of

In my opinion, Academic integrity is being sincere with professors and institution. We will not succeed in the future by submitting other person’s work. Students should be disciplined or else they can be sent out from the university. Academic Integrity is very important for the student.

Trident University is a 100% online university. Academic integrity is very important to the attendees of this university. Academic integrity is entrusting every student to be honest and trustful when submitting assignments and giving credit to someone else work. Online classes can be difficult for some people. It is very easy for someone to plagiarize now that technology is improving. Having academic integrity shows that you are committed in doing the work. Anyone can copy and past, but Trident University want to know are you learning while being taught online. Many people feel that they cannot learn online and it a waste of time. People might say online classes are easier because you can use the Internet to copy and past your work. This is

“I pledge on my honor that I have not violated the Appalachian State University Academic Integrity Code.”

Another university that has an academic integrity policy is the University of Rochester (UR) which is in Rochester, New York and is a private, nonsectarian, research university. UR was founded in the year 1850, has 11,060 students who must apply by its policy and is part of the University Athletic Association. Academic integrity is important because it keeps students humble and honest about what they know versus what they don’t know. If a student knows that they are cheating they should stop as they should know what is right and wrong but society has put them in the position that they think it is ok

To verify that an assignment is successfully submitted on Turnitin.com, a student must check for a digital receipt, which is automatically emailed to the student (Academic Integrity Assignment, 2017).

Prior to completing the Academic Integrity Program, I thought academic integrity was as simple “not cheating.” I considered it a policy solely implemented to ensure that students learned the material. To me, cheating was mostly plagiarism, or trying to pass off someone else’s work as your own. It was not until I completed the program that I began to understand the long-term effects of cheating on the peers, the professor, and the institution. Now, I understand that cheating affects not just me, but also the other students in my courses and the university’s reputation. I also understand the reasoning behind the university’s strict policies regarding academic integrity violations, as they are in place to protect the student, the classmates,

While I am a rising senior at Appalachian I have to admit that until this course I had not actually read the full Academic integrity code. Sure it has been in every single syllabus I have had since I was a freshman but I would always just skim it and think that it cannot possibly be much different than the Honor code I had to write on every assignment I did in high school. The statement read “I pledge my honor that I have neither given nor received aid on this test or paper” but it mainly got shortened down to IPMH and then my signature. After thinking about this is when I realized that how important for me it was to actually read through the whole honor code. I consider myself to be a good, trustworthy student; I pride myself on doing

After having read the Academic Integrity policy and everything that it includes, I would have to state that my understanding of this policy is that it is a policy of pure honesty and trust. This policy, to my understanding, is exactly what it says it is. This policy is all about integrity. Integrity, by my definition, is doing what is right when nobody is watching. In other words, integrity is doing what is expected of you, even if/when you are by yourself. Integrity encompasses a large group of admirable traits, such as trustworthiness, honesty, and good morals. So, when applying integrity into school, the Academic Integrity policy comes into play.

Perhaps a student’s first experience with Academic Integrity is early in elementary school when the teacher says, “Keep your eyes to yourself and cover your work.” Here at Appalachian State University (ASU), upon admission, students take a pledge on their honor. Students pledge against lying in any manner. Additionally, cheating and stealing are unacceptable. Lying, cheating, or stealing cannot be the vehicle for gaining an academic advantage. Also, students pledge to oppose every instance of academic dishonesty. Therefore, the University provides a “user-friendly” ten-part outline explaining definitions, administration, violations, sanctions, appeals and goals of the Academic Integrity Code (AIC). The Academic Integrity Code at ASU will

This YouTube video has been recorded at the 2008 Annual Academic Integrity Conference; chosen participants were interviewed and asked about the meaning and importance of academic integrity. The video shows participants own beliefs about the topic. In my opinion all interviewees concur, with different degrees on their responses, that academic integrity is a set of ethical values that all individuals must comply with. Those set of values can be summarized as, trust, fairness, respect, honesty and responsibility.

Currently academic integrity policies are promoted and informed to students in a correct manner. All the professor’s, teaching assistants are providing students with all relevant and important information regarding academic integrity policies at the very start of the course or academic semester. As an individual I will promote this policy on campus by discussing it with friends, classmate,

As a student at American InterContinental University we all have a certain code we must follow. Being a professional student, my duty is to abide by the rules of honesty set by the college to be professional at all I do. The code of honesty set by the college states, “that I pledge that all test taken and work submitted by me will be my original own ideas and of my own efforts.” (Student Handbook, 2011) Showing honesty in any professional environment will bring great rewards for all who abide by the rules. Professional and academic integrity involves everyone taking responsibility for their conduct and competence.

Academic integrity is one of my main guiding principles that have carried me throughout my collegiate career. There has been multiple times where my environment has challenged this principle. Although I have never given into the temptation of cheating, one specific instance tested my resolve and will. My genetics class was one of my more difficult classes at Norfolk State University. During the final exam for the class the professor stepped out for an extended amount of time. The student I was sitting next to then offered me the answer key to the exam. Of course I denied the offer but now I realize this decision was a pivotal to m. That exam was more than a grade, it also tested my character as a student. Knowing that the grade I would get

"Academic integrity is the pursuit of scholarly activity in an open, honest and responsible manner. All students should act with personal integrity, respect other students' dignity, rights and property, and help create and maintain an environment in which all can succeed through the fruits of their efforts."
