This tutorial was created collaboratively between the Academic Integrity Unit and Library. It is based in part on KPU's Academic Integrity Tutorial that was actively used from 2020-2023. The previous tutorial contained parts on writing and citing, whereas the new tutorial focuses solely on academic integrity. The new tutorial includes links to the different writing and citing resources available at KPU for students to explore after completing the tutorial.

To access the revised tutorial, you will need to enrol in the tutorial through Moodle at: https://community.moodle.kpu.ca/course/view.php?id=373. There is no cost to take this tutorial and it is open to all KPU students.

This new tutorial covers the following topics:

  1. What academic integrity means at KPU 
  2. Why academic integrity is important 
  3. The most common examples of academic misconduct 
  4. What happens if you are involved in academic misconduct 
  5. Why people might engage in academic misconduct 
  6. Strategies and resources to help you uphold academic integrity

What if I have already completed the old version of the Academic Integrity Tutorial - do I need to complete this new version as well?

We recommend that students complete this new version as well as the information and examples have been updated. It is also a good refresher for students. If you have successfully completed the old version of the Academic Integrity Tutorial, your badge will remain on your Moodle Profile. If your instructor is requiring you to complete the Academic Integrity Tutorial, it will be up to your instructor whether or not to accept the old badge.
