Academic Integrity Tutorial

• The tutorial consists of 8 chapters.
  
  
• In the first chapter, you will be asked six questions as a preliminary assessment of your knowledge of basic research skills and academic integrity. In the final chapter, you will be asked 10 post-assessment questions to evaluate your progress.
  
  
• The heart of the tutorial consists of the six chapters in the middle. You will meet students who are writing papers, working on laboratory experiments and collaborating on a group project. Each group faces research and ethical issues. Over the course of each chapter, you will be asked to answer a number of questions applicable to the students’ situations.
  
  
• Give each question serious thought. If you work at a dedicated pace, this tutorial should take you approximately one hour to complete.

• You do not need to complete the tutorial in one sitting. The program will save your progress so that when you come back at a later date you will be able to pick up where you left off. If you need to logout, it is recommended that you wait until you have completed your current chapter.

Use the View Completed Chapters link to review material in any chapter that you have already completed.
  
  
• You will often be asked to link to outside sites for additional information or guidance. Remember that each link will open a new window. You must close that window, or switch between windows, to return to the tutorial.
  
  
• All answers are randomized, so you will need to re-read the question and answers each time.
