The Academic Integrity Policy and Academic Integrity Procedure embody Sheridan's commitment to:
Academic Excellence
Uphold academic excellence
across all of Sheridan’s programs
Sheridan Credentials
Maintain the integrity of
Sheridan credentials
Accurate Assessment
Ensure that grades reflect an
accurate assessment of student work
Fairness
Ensure that no one gains
an unfair academic advantage
In order to uphold these commitments, a failure to follow the Policy and Procedure results in a breach of Academic Integrity, and may result in an academic penalty (sanction).
In this tutorial, we will outline the main definitions identified in the Policy and Procedure and apply the Policy and Procedure to a variety of practical scenarios. Throughout this tutorial, you will have the opportunity to test your own knowledge and understanding of the ethical considerations discussed in the Policy and Procedure.
