Teachable Moments: Developing On-line Action Plans for Students found In-Violation of Academic Integrity

Today’s college students are under a tremendous amount of pressure to produce a picture-perfect transcript upon graduation. During these times, students are even more concerned about how to maintain course standards and personal expectations during a pandemic. As a result, there has been an increase in cases of academic misconduct. So, how do we provide educational sanctioning during a pandemic to students found in-violation of academic integrity. This presentation will introduce you to how we design and tailor multi-component on-line action plans. These action plans consist of components associated with values, ethical decision making, confidence building, perfectionism, and dealing with shame and self-doubt. Through the completion of these action plans we hope students will stay strong and committed to their value system of honesty and truthfulness.
