Students are expected to be familiar with these standards regarding academic honesty and to uphold the policies of the University in this respect. Students are particularly urged to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Code of Student Behavior (online at www.ualberta.ca/secretariat/appeals.htm) and avoid any behavior which could potentially result in suspicions of cheating, plagiarism, misrepresentation of facts
and/or participation in an offence. Academic dishonesty is a serious offence and can result in suspension or expulsion from the University.” (GFC 29 SEP 2003) RECORDING Audio or video recording of lectures, labs, seminars or any other teaching environment by students is allowed only with the prior written consent of the instructor or as a part of an approved accommodation plan. Recorded material is to be used solely for personal study, and is not to be used or distributed for any other purpose without prior written consent from the instructor. Cheating * If you look at someone else’s test, get information from someone else’s during a test, give someone else information or allow someone to copy from your test, or bring a ‘cheat sheet’ into a test (even if you don’t use it!), that’s cheating. * If you let someone else write a test, assignment or paper for you, or if you do those things for someone else, that’s cheating. * If you get too much editing or writing help (to the extent that your paper looks substantially different than it would if you wrote it on your own), that’s cheating. *If you submit something in a class that has already been submitted and graded in another class, that’s cheating. *If you include facts or references that you know to be false in any assignment of any kind, that’s cheating. In other words, cheating is dishonest behavior designed to gain academic advantage. Any work you hand in or do for credit at the University of Alberta MUST be done honestly and with integrity! Code of Student Behavior – Cheating (§30.3.2(2) a No Student shall in the course of an examination or other similar activity, obtain or attempt to obtain information from another Student or other unauthorized source, give or attempt to give information to another Student, or use, attempt to use or possess for the purposes of use any unauthorized material. b No Student shall represent or attempt to represent him or herself as another or have or attempt to have himself or herself represented by another in the taking of an examination, preparation of a paper or other similar activity. See also misrepresentation in 30.3.6(4). c No Student shall represent another’s substantial editorial or compositional assistance on an assignment as the Student’s own work. d No Student shall submit in any course or program of study, without the written approval of the course Instructor, all or a substantial portion of any academic writing, essay, thesis, research report, project, assignment, presentation or poster for which credit has previously been obtained by the Student or which has been or is being submitted by the Student in another course or program of study in the University or elsewhere. e No Student shall submit in any course or program of study any academic writing, essay, thesis, report, project, assignment, presentation or poster containing a statement of fact known by the Student to be false or a reference to a source the Student knows to contain fabricated claims (unless acknowledged by the Student), or a fabricated reference to a source.
