The problem of why students cheat is one of the most studied in academic integrity. Thomas will discuss how he has used GenAI to help to process existing knowledge, and will share the 5 I’s Framework he has developed as part of his undergraduate academic integrity research module at Imperial College London. The 5 I’s Framework classifies factors that contribute to academic misconduct as Internal, Interpersonal, Institutional, Instructional, and Ideological, helping to demonstrate that there are multiple factors which the educational community need to address to help students to always operate with academic integrity.

Dr Lancaster is known across the world for research into contract cheating and academic integrity. He published the first research paper on contract cheating in 2006.

Thomas is a Principal Teaching Fellow in the Department of Computing at Imperial College London and the Senior Tutor for MSc students in that Department.

He’s widely published, a popular keynote at many events across the globe, has been known to grace Radio 4, and is the holder of the prestigious Tracey Bretag Award 2023 for Academic Integrity.

Thomas coordinates the London and South East England Academic Integrity Network and is a member of the European Network for Academic Integrity amongst others.
