Teaching and Learning with Integrity in a Postplagiarism Age

Considerations for the Ethical Use of GenAI

Presenter is Dr. Sarah Elaine Eaton
Professor and Chair, Leadership, Policy, and Governance
Founder and Director, Postplagiarism Research Lab
Werklund School of Education, University of Calgary

What does it mean to teach, learn, and live in a postplagiarism age? What are the implications of emergent AI technologies for academic integrity in the coming academic year?

This session is not about how to use specific tools. Instead, we will delve into the broad ethical and practical implications of AI for education. A key takeaway is that a comprehensive and holistic view of academic integrity is about more than preventing plagiarism or cheating; it is about ethical decision-making in and beyond the classroom. In a multi-stakeholder approach to academic integrity, everyone within the educational system holds a responsibility for ethical conduct, including how we use technology today and into the future.
