Professor Cath Ellis Kane Murdoch This diagram should be the guiding light for academic integrity people. And for anybody teaching a grad cert in higher ed wanting a framework to think about cheating and integrity. Print it out, stick it on the wall.
Phillip Dawson Professor Cath Ellis Kane Murdoch Thinking about the top group “unasked to do the work…”.
