Academic Integrity Week
From Oct. 14–18, 2024, students, staff and faculty are invited to learn how they can uphold academic integrity in their work, among their peers, and in the campus community.
#uhaveintegrity
Throughout your university experience, you'll likely encounter instances where your academic integrity is tested, whether it's during group work, online classes, final exams, completing research or more. It's important to be knowledgeable of what constitutes academic integrity so you can have a rewarding learning experience, uphold ethical learning practices and avoid academic misconduct situations.
As a campus community, we all play a part in upholding academic integrity. That's why during Academic Integrity Week, groups from across UCalgary are hosting events and sharing resources to keep students, professors, TAs and staff informed and aware.
Academic Integrity Week is brought to you in partnership by the Student Success Centre, Libraries and Cultural Resources, Faculty of Science, Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and the Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning.

Your Brain and AI: The intersections of GenAI, Academic Integrity and Executive Function
Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is often viewed as a threat to academic integrity, even as a replacement for learning; however, it can be a powerful tool for enhancing learning. This presentation explores how generative AI can support executive function—such as cognitive offloading, attention, and metacognition—while maintaining and even strengthening academic integrity. We emphasize how AI can facilitate independent learning, ensuring that both the process and outcomes reflect the student’s genuine efforts and ethical engagement with the material. Location: Online Zoom Date: Thursday, October 17 Time: 10 – 11 a.m. Facilitators: Brenda McDermott, PhD, Senior Manager, Student Experience and Support, Student Accessibility Services Lorelei Anselmo, MEd, Learning and Instructional Designer, Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning
