Academic Integrity Remediation

Here's how students complete the AIR process:

1. Faculty notify student of sanction, and refer students to Tutoring to book a remediation appointment with an Academic Integrity Remediation Specialist.

2. After receiving notification of the sanction, students will have 45 days to meet with an Academic Integrity Remediation Specialist. Academic Integrity Remediation Specialists are available for appointments during daytime hours, Monday-Friday.

3. The Academic Integrity Remediation Specialist will register the student in the Academic Integrity Tutorial on SLATE. Students must complete this tutorial prior to their appointment with the Academic Integrity Remediation Specialist. The tutorial will take approximately one hour to complete.

4. The Academic Integrity Remediation Specialist will meet with students for their appointment to answer any questions about the tutorial, academic integrity, research and citation practices.

5. Students will complete a formal quiz during the appointment based on the Academic Integrity Tutorial.

6. Faculty will receive an email if students do not complete remediation within 45 days.

7. Faculty may re-assess the sanction according to the Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. See Sheridan College’s Academic Integrity Policy.
