Academic Integrity
Students need to be aware that academic integrity refers to text and non-
text sources, i.e. "copying or adapting non-text based material created by others, such as diagrams, designs,
musical score, audio-visual materials, art work, plans, code or photographs without appropriate
acknowledgement" (MOPP C/5.3.6 Academic Integrity). It also includes self-plagiarism, which “involves the re-
use by a student of their own work without appropriate acknowledgement of the source; or using AI-generated
text, which is ‘making false declarations regarding the originality or ownership of, or the student’s engagement
with, an assessment task’ (MOPP C/5.3.6 Academic Integrity).
Students are expected to demonstrate their own understanding and thinking using ideas provided by ‘others’ to
support and inform their work, always acknowledging the source. While we encourage peer learning, it is not
appropriate to share assignments with other students unless your assessment piece has been stated as being
a group assignment. If you do share your assignment with another student, and they copy all or part of your
assignment for their submission, this is considered collusion and you may be reported for academic
misconduct. If you are unsure and need more information
