Summer Series Pre-Blog 3: Working with Faculty
What do you find most exciting/ challenging/ interesting about working with faculty in academic integrity work? Has your answer to that shifted over the years? If so, how? If not, why not? KELLY: Faculty are really the defenders of academic integrity. Because they score student work, it is instructors who notice and respond to academic dishonesty. This is a big responsibility that is not commonly recognized in our triad of teaching, research, and community service responsibilities for faculty. As a result, I am happy to support any instructor as they go through this process. Addressing academic dishonesty can be lonely work, and it is not the work that any person hoped to do when they pursued teaching in higher education. I think the biggest challenge, especially at a large university, is getting all faculty on board with our policies and procedures. For a variety of reasons, some instructors either turn a blind eye to dishonesty concerns or handle them outside of required procedures. I think this harms our learning environment in many ways and detracts from any sense of “fairness” for students.
