Description
The incidents of academic integrity violations increased dramatically with the move to entirely online instruction in March 2020. In addition, the types of infractions shifted towards more unauthorized collaboration and cheating on tests rather than plagiarism. Student stress and lack of timely communication with faculty during a testing situation seemed to be the drivers of the collaboration behaviors. Strategies will be discussed for preventing this problem as we remain in hybrid or online teaching with traditional students.
