Weekly Conversations: Why Students Cheat

In this conversation, we’ll examine factors that influence students’ decisions, the value of student-instructor interactions, and ways course design can encourage academic integrity. Suggested reading: “Why Students Cheat” (Ch. 1) from The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI.



About the Weekly Conversations

Join us for one conversation or several throughout the semester, as your schedule allows. Together, we'll explore how communication, course design, assessment practices, and conversations about ethics can help students develop habits and decision-making skills that support integrity beyond the classroom.

The conversations draw on ideas from The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI. Each session is self-contained, and participants may attend any sessions that fit their interests and schedules.

To support open conversation and thoughtful reflection, this session will not be recorded. Participants are encouraged to share experiences, ask questions, and learn with colleagues in a collegial setting.
