Welcome to the University of Saskatchewan's learning tutorial on Academic Integrity.
We acknowledge that we are on Treaty Territory and the Homeland of the Métis. We pay our respect to the First Nations and Métis ancestors of this place and reaffirm our relationship with one another.
This tutorial will introduce you to the concept of academic integrity, which is a cornerstone of all the work you will do at university. The International Centre for Academic Integrity proposes six core values to help guide your work, ensuring that it is fair and honest, and received in good faith. These core values [honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility, and courage] provide an important foundation for the learning you will do and for the fair assessment of the work you produce.
While every University of Saskatchewan college and discipline contribute to the academic community differently, they all share the same set of values for academic integrity. These values are echoed in the Learning Charter and include
At the end of the tutorial, you should have a better understanding of your responsibilities regarding all academic work, your rights if suspected of misconduct and the procedures in place to help you, and the supports and services available to ensure you succeed within the larger scholarly community.
There are three modules, each concluding with a brief multiple-choice quiz. You may take these quizzes as often as you like to evaluate your understanding of academic integrity.
