Students are expected to know and abide by the ASU academic integrity policy. Regardless, it is good practice to always provide clear assignment/exam instructions. Repeating expectations and providing clear instructions make it more difficult for a panicked student to rationalize a poor academic integrity decision.
- If you have instructions in Canvas, consider putting the same instructions at the top of any documents associated with the assignment.
- If you have an individual assignment, consider explaining in detail what that means so students fully understand the expectation.
- For group projects, make sure students understand they are responsible for the academic integrity of the entire project.
- If you ask students to cite sources, be sure to explain your expectations for how those citations must look in the assignment.
