This session will be about working to achieve a culture of academic integrity in the classroom by helping students develop their own inner motivation. One way that students feel motivated to work on assignments with integrity is when they feel recognized and valued by positive student-instructor relationships. Additionally, by providing students with class time to practice assignment skills and receive feedback on their efforts, students will have the confidence to attempt the assignment on their own. Finally, by preparing choice-based assignments, students can take ownership of the unique product they create. During this session, attendees will receive concrete examples and resources to help them adapt these student-centered strategies in their own classrooms., Canadian Perspectives on Academic Integrity, Vol. 4 No. 1 (2021): Volume 4, Issue 1

After so many changes in education over the past year, the need to stay grounded in fundamental values is more important than ever. The surge in cognitive offloading tools (i.e. apps and websites that will offer completed academic work), have educators feel they are running a losing race to keep a diverse student body focused on learning content and demonstrating knowledge with integrity. Integrating discussions on the fundamental values of honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility, and courage in classroom supports has allowed the Academic Success Centre and Library Services at Red River College to build academic integrity into their suite of supports. Session presenters will share examples of collaborative sessions that have empowered students to analyze options and make decisions that lead to academic success. Session participants will be asked to reflect on opportunities to integrate the fundamental values into their work. This session will encourage you to use the resources you have to promote academic integrity with confidence., Canadian Perspectives on Academic Integrity, Vol. 4 No. 1 (2021): Volume 4, Issue 1
