Supporting Students with Academic Honesty and Integrity

This workshop is open to all University of Exeter staff who support students to develop skills and understandings relating to academic honesty and integrity regardless of their formal role at the university. This might mean:

  • You are a member of a Faculty Cases Team or a (Senior) Academic Conduct Officer
  • You're a personal tutor or Pastoral Mentor
  • You have referred work for an academic conduct investigation
  • You support students as a member of The Guild
  • You run study skills or academic conduct sessions
  • You are concerned about academic conduct or integrity issues within your module and want to support students more.

The workshop is being run as part of the Fair and Equitable Investigations project, funded by the Centre for Social Mobility.

The workshop will centre around questions of how support can be developed to be more accessible to diverse groups of students, recognsing that not all students will develop an understanding of academic honesty and integrity in the same way. We will be looking at current policies across the Higher Education Sector, recent technological developments (e.g., GenAI), and different strategies for support. From these, participants will be asked to consider what key areas for intervention they encounter in their work and what resources could be developed to better help them support students in this area.

During the workshop, you will be engaged in discussion in groups of around 4-6. The workshop will not be recorded, but you will be asked to keep notes from your discussion on flipchart paper or a Padlet for the session. These points will then be used by the project to help develop new resources for students and for staff who support students.

This workshop will run from 13:00 to 15:00 on Tuesday 13th May 2025 and will be catered.
