Academic Integrity in the Online Classroom: Traditional Practices and New Challenges
Wednesday, April 21 | 1:00PM-2:00PM
This session will focus on academic integrity in the online classroom. In a traditional classroom, student accountability may have been assessed through monitoring in exams, or checking in on student conversations. In the online classroom, this can be complicated – some instructors have opted to use proctoring services, alternative assessments, analytics, or they have reconceptualized what needs to be taken into consideration as student accountability.
Panelists: Dr. Shawna Faber, Associate Professor of Teaching, ECPS | Louai Rahal, PhD Student
