The increased incidences of academic misconduct in universities are compromising the reputation of higher education in Australia and increasing the work of academics responsible for the delivery of quality learning outcomes to students. Confronted with increasing instances of academic dishonesty in university classrooms, universities play a pivotal role in ensuring their academic staff are well-equipped with academic integrity knowledge. It is therefore important to understand academic staff perspectives about the training their workplaces could provide them on academic integrity. Specifically, this qualitative case study explores the opinions and perceptions of sessional or casual university academic staff on what content they would like to know about academic integrity, and how this knowledge could best be delivered to them. The study found that participants (N = 18) were genuinely interested in furthering their understanding of academic integrity issues, particularly in the areas of contract cheating, effective use of plagiarism detection tools, and developing a toolkit of skills that they could use to detect and deter plagiarism. In terms of the delivery of academic integrity training programs, webinars and orientation sessions were suggested as effective delivery mechanisms. Imparting knowledge about the content areas through the identified delivery mechanisms could enhance teaching faculty’s understanding of student academic dishonesty and how to curb this behaviour proactively.

返回课堂:对会期教学人员进行学术诚信教育

大学中学术不端行为的增加正在损害澳大利亚高等教育的声誉,并增加了负责向学生提供优质学习成果的学者的工作。面对大学教室中学术不诚实的情况不断增加的情况,大学在确保其学术人员具备良好的学术诚信知识方面发挥着举足轻重的作用。因此,重要的是要了解教职员工关于其工作场所培训可以为他们提供学术诚信的观点。具体而言,此定性案例研究探讨了期会或临时大学学术人员的意见和看法,以了解他们希望了解什么有关学术诚信的内容,以及如何最好地向他们提供这些知识。研究发现,参与者(N = 18)真正有兴趣进一步加深对学术诚信问题的理解,特别是在合同作弊,有效使用窃检测工具以及开发可用来检测和识别技能的工具包方面遏制窃。在学术诚信培训计划的交付方面,网络研讨会和入学介绍会被认为是有效的交付机制。通过确定的交付机制传播有关内容领域的知识,可以增强教师对学生学术不诚实的理解,以及如何积极遏制这种行为。有效使用use窃检测工具,并开发可用来检测和阻止ter窃的技能工具包。在学术诚信培训计划的交付方面,网络研讨会和入学介绍会被认为是有效的交付机制。通过确定的交付机制传播有关内容领域的知识,可以增强教师对学生学术不诚实的理解,以及如何积极遏制这种行为。有效使用use窃检测工具,并开发可用来检测和阻止ter窃的技能工具包。在学术诚信培训计划的交付方面,网络研讨会和入学介绍会被认为是有效的交付机制。通过确定的交付机制传播有关内容领域的知识,可以增强教师对学生学术不诚实的理解,以及如何积极遏制这种行为。
