Academic Integrity and Assessment
Our Student Charter defines high standards for academic integrity, respect and honesty. Academic integrity requires us to openly acknowledge where we have drawn on someone or something's work in assessment.
Plagiarism is one specific way of breaking academic integrity. It is
the use of the works from another source, presented as your own, without specific acknowledgement.
Plagiarism applies to written work, music, images computer code and ideas.
It is good academic practice to acknowledge the use of AI in any submitted work. To support students to do this, assessment briefs should include clear guidance on expectations for AI usage and acknowledgement.

International Journal for Educational Integrity (IJEI)
The IJEI is an international, peer-reviewed journal providing a platform for educators across all sectors to research issues in the multi-disciplinary field of educational integrity. The IJEI challenges readers to consider the changing nature of education in a globalised environment, and the impact that conceptions of educational integrity have on issues of pedagogy, academic standards, intercultural understanding and equity.
