p2pnet news view | Off Topic:- With graphic novels increasingly in the headlines, the University of Waterloo’s office of academic integrity has created a website to, “serve as a resource for both students and faculty”.
Just in time for the September orientation week ………
The idea is to, “help students recognize and avoid common errors, such as plagiarism and improper citing of sources,” continues the UW Daily Bulletin.
The art comes from Sara LeBlanc of UW Graphics, and the tutorial itself was prepared by a team led by librarians Christine Jewell and Leeanne Romane, says the story.
Other aspects are being investigated to, “introduce improvements in academic integrity, such as in exam management, Verification of Illness Forms (VIFs), text-detection software, and Distance Education Courses,” adds the post.
