The question of how to foster academic integrity in teaching, particularly when it comes to high-stakes exams, is of great concern to many faculty and students. Approaches to academic integrity in online teaching are complicated, as the test-taking environment is no longer bound by the physical location of a classroom.
In response to this increased complexity, a range of techniques and approaches have developed from the pedagogical (choice of assignment and assessment design) to the technological (choice of digital platforms and automated proctoring solutions). As best practice, these choices are interrelated—and technological decisions should not override pedagogical, ethical, and student-centered concerns.
Panelists include:
Tolga Aydinliyim, Management
Stephan Dilchert, Management
Alex Mills, Management
Valerie Watnick, Law
Ron Whiteman, Psychology
