There is no official ISU statement regarding academic dishonesty. Whatever you write on the syllabus, it should refer to:
 
* the ISU Policy on Academic Integrity and Dishonesty (http://www.isu.edu/policy/4000/AA-Academic-Integ-Dishonesty-4000-7-27-15.pdf)
 
* examples of what constitutes academic dishonesty
 
* which assignments may be collaborative and what you mean by collaboration
 
* the use of electronic devices (cell phones, cameras, etc)
 
* a statement about exam attendance and behavior
 
 
 
FYI, I've attached a file from the Office of Student Affairs regarding Academic Integrity policies and enforcement.  In addition, their Web page (http://www.isu.edu/studenta/#) has several useful documents on the Faculty/Staff link.
 
 
 
  
  

Revision as of 00:18, 7 January 2016

We will adhere to the contents of the Student handbook with particular emphasis on the Academic Integrity Policy and additional policies found at http://www.isu.edu/policy/5000/index.shtml and http://www.isu.edu/studenta/#.



The following represents the student conduct that I would like to emphasize

  1. Talking: If you want to talk about issues unrelated to the class discussion, please leave and come back when you are ready to learn. It is wrong to assume your neighbor wants to talk to you instead of trying to learn.
  2. Tardy: It is unfair to interrupt the class by entering the classroom late. Do not enter the classroom late.
  3. Plagiarism: To check for plagiarism, click the word Plagiarism for a definition, I will randomly choose five words from several sentences and search the internet for sentences which contain those same five words. Plagiarism falls under the "Academic Dishonesty" section of the student handbook. Discipline for students who plagiarize can range from a failing grade to dismissal from class. The Faculty Staff Handbook defines plagiarism in "Part 6 Student Affairs, Section IX. Student Conduct , A. Academic Dishonesty 2. Definitions , b. Plagiarism". The Faculty Staff Handbook also outlines the procedure to be followed when Academic Dishonesty is suspected in "4. Procedures for Determination of Academic Dishonesty and Imposition of Penalties" below the definition of plagiarism.
  4. Electronic communication devices are not permitted during exams. You will be asked to leave and you will be investigated for violating the student conduct code if found using such a device during an exam.
