One area of contract cheating support that we need to think about further is how we train academic staff to address contract cheating. The UK’s Quality Assurance Agency asked me to discuss this on a webinar, with reference to the contract cheating guidance they released.
You can see the slides I used below (and also ).
My focus for the presentation was on what needs to be covered during a staff development session, including understanding local processes and helping students to develop their own view of academic integrity.
If you’re interested in viewing the full webinar video, this is available from the QAA for Quality Insights Members.
As always, I’m happy to develop and deliver training for individual institutions in the UK or internationally. Feel free to contact me if you’d like to explore how we can work together.
