Integrity of Course Assessments
You will be required to demonstrate and share your knowledge by way of assessments (e.g., assignments and tests). As members of an academic learning community and future practitioners in your chosen profession, it is important that these assessments have integrity. Therefore, faculty members and invigilators are responsible for employing strategies to uphold the integrity of tests and assignments.
All submitted written work may be reviewed for authenticity and originality utilizing Turnitin®. Students who do not wish to have their work submitted to Turnitin® must, by the end of the second week of class, communicate this in writing to the instructor and make mutually agreeable alternate arrangements.
Tests conducted remotely may require the use of online proctoring technology (e.g., Respondus Lockdown, Respondus Monitor, Proctortrack) where your identification is verified and your activity is restricted or monitored and/or recorded, both audibly and visually, through remote access to your computer and web camera. Your student ID card may be required to verify your identity. If you require an alternate assessment format you must communicate this in writing to the instructor as soon as possible and prior to the test to explore mutually agreeable alternatives.
There are many other strategies that faculty members may take to ensure academic integrity.
