Some common types of academic integrity breaches include:
-Unauthorised use of generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI): Using Gen-AI tools to help complete your assessments when use has not been explicitly allowed.
(If you are unclear whether you are allowed to use a Gen-AI tool for course work, check with our course co-ordinator).
-Plagiarism: Copying or paraphrasing someone else’s work without appropriate references or 'quotes' and presenting it as your own.
This includes using your own work in a different context without authorisation (self plagiarism).
-Collusion: Working with others on a task when individual work is required. This is sometimes called unauthorised collaboration and it may occur unintentionally or
intentionally.
-File-sharing: uploading assessment work or course materials to file-sharing websites, or any other form of unauthorised distribution of assessment work or
course materials.
-Contract cheating: Having someone else complete all or part of an assessment or task for you, either paid or unpaid.
-Falsification: Manipulating, changing or omitting research data and presenting the results, which will not be valid.
-Fabrication: Making up research data, including sources and presenting them as results, or genuine sources.
-Impersonation: Pretending to be another person when completing an assessment or getting someone else to do an assessment for you. For example, sitting a
test or examination on behalf of another student.
