Paraphrasing is most commonly taught as a writing strategy, but there are several underlying benefits to this mighty literacy skill. Learning to paraphrase also strengthens academic integrity and reading comprehension. Just think... students must first make sense of what they’re reading in order to paraphrase. This consists of reading and rereading texts to determine big ideas and supporting details. Hence, teaching paraphrasing is often applied as an intervention for reading comprehension.

Associate Professor Tracey Bretag* will share the 8 key findings from the Office for Learning and Teaching funded project, Contract cheating and assessment design: Exploring the
connection(www.cheatingandassessment.edu.au):
- Contract cheating is a symptom, not the problem
- Students ‘share’ their work a lot, and this can lead to cheating
- Students primarily outsource their work to people they know
- Three factors influence contract cheating: Language other than English (LOTE) status, dissatisfaction with teaching and learning and the perception that there are ‘lots of opportunities to cheat’
- Students don’t care about contract cheating, and we’re not talking to them about it
- Suspected cases of contract cheating often go unreported and penalties are lenient
- Authentic assessment is a good thing to do, but it will not solve the problem of contract cheating
- Assessment designs that are less likely to be outsourced are rarely used
*This project is co-led by Tracey Bretag and Rowena Harper at the University of South Australia, with institutional partners University of New South Wales, University of Sydney, Griffith University and Swansea University, UK.

Feedback is powerful but variable. This study investigates which forms of feedback are more predictive of improvement to students’ essays, using Turnitin Feedback Studio–a computer augmented system to capture teacher and computer-generated feedback comments. The study used a sample of 3,204 high school and university students who submitted their essays, received feedback comments, and then resubmitted for final grading. The major finding was the importance of “where to next” feedback which led to the greatest gains from the first to the final submission. There is support for the worthwhileness of computer moderated feedback systems that include both teacher- and computer-generated feedback.

As schools shift to hybrid or fully online environments this Fall, educators, staff, and students prepare to face a new normal. With that comes many new challenges, in particular, finding new ways to connect and build authentic relationships with students. How can educators learn about their students “from a distance?” How is communication different in this new setting? What can educators do to ensure their students feel heard? While it is a challenge, it is also an opportunity to focus on an aspect of education that research suggests directly impacts learning--positive student relationships and perceptions towards school.
This session focuses on challenges and strategies for building and maintaining strong student relationships remotely. The panel, featuring educators from varying backgrounds and perspectives in both secondary and higher education, will discuss:
- How the current landscape of education impacts student-teacher relationships
- Strategies for building and maintaining student relationships in a remote environment
- Resources, tips, and tools for supporting the development of student relationships

Well-intentioned open access journals that engage in best practices have been a boon to the research community.

The term "integrity," especially in the context of "academic integrity," is typically uttered from a defensive standpoint. For example, integrity is meant to be counterposed to the act of cheating, and of plagiarism. Integrity is mostly associated with terms like honor, honesty, and transparency. This is commonly understood, and for a good reason because, I believe, at least, these associations are good and true.

Essays from essay writing services often contain extensive material
cribbed from online sources as well as material from banks of
standard essays that have been recycled many times over. Students
who purchase so-called custom-written essays may not be getting as
original work as they think. Because of the size and reach of
Turnitin's databases, Turnitin is likely to flag content in
so-called custom essays as unoriginal.
In a blog posting by Dan Ariely (professor at Duke University and
the author of "The Honest Truth About
Dishonesty" and "Predictably
Irrational") entitled "Plagiarism
and essay mills," he explains the results of an experiment in
which he purchased custom essays to check out their quality. After
receiving the absurdly poor quality essays produced by these
services, he concludes, "...the day is not here where students can
submit papers from essay mills and get good grades for them.
Moreover, we concluded that if students did try to buy a paper from
an essay mill, just like us, they would feel that they have wasted
their money and won't try it again."

“Tests” feel like tricks and traps set up to catch the weak points. On the other hand, an assessment isn’t a set of tricks and traps, but rather questions.

With that thought in mind, here are some helpful questions for students to ask while preparing for an in-class assessment:

The internet has made it easy to find information on any topic, but it’s also made it easier to spread misinformation.
Grading can be the dreariest part of teaching. Here's how to engage in self-care during assessment and uphold integrity
Formative feedback is maximized when it occurs within the writing process as opposed to solely at the point of assessment. When inserted into the writing process, students can reflect and then apply these concepts in revision and subsequent assignments, enacting a feedback loop, separate from the pressure of final assessment.
Rubrics are a great way to consistently and objectively evaluate student work—but lets face it, rubrics can be time-consuming when what you really want to do is quickly evaluate student work based on a set of predefined criteria or learning goals.
Turnitin's new Grading Forms are simple rubrics that allow an instructor to give free-form feedback and scores for students broken out across a list of criteria.
Instructors can create grading forms from the Rubric/Form Manager in GradeMark or in their Turnitin class libraries. To create a grading form simply select "create new grading form" from the menu in their Rubric/Form Manager. The instructor will then be able to create a list of criteria and enter an optional description for each criterion. The instructor can set whether to use scoring in the grading form. If scoring is used, a score field will appear for each criterion in the scorecard view of the grading form. After a grading form is created it can be attached to an assignment in the same manner as a rubric.
Turnitin wants to be a partner to educators everywhere as we help students navigate their educational journey. To that end, we are constantly updating our software and complementary resources to stay relevant to student and educator needs. So we want to provide some highlighted updates from this past year that help educators and students interface remote, hybrid, in-person learning, and everything in between with Feedback Studio.
Top of mind for all educators in schools and colleges is maintaining a good reputation. Not only does this satisfy Ofsted, but also brings in more students and helps to sustain budgets. But it's not only exam results that affect a school or college's reputation.
Ofsted's guidance for schools for achieving an 'outstanding' status, specifies the need for "pupils and particular groups of pupils [to] have excellent educational experiences…and…ensure that they are very well equipped for the next stage of their education, training or employment." There is a similar specification for colleges.
By facilitating opportunities to access work placements, educators offer students broader experiences and the opportunity to develop life skills. But with the ongoing challenges with funding for work experience, how can schools and colleges deliver these without adding extensive pressure to stretched budgets and resources?

An honor code, like the one above, is a promise that all work is the student’s own, a concrete commitment to academic integrity.

So how can we establish a formative space that nurtures awareness of academic integrity throughout the learning journey?

Honor codes reduce instances of academic misconduct. Research has shown that honor codes must be enacted in a supportive manner.

Written by Lisa Boutin Vitela, Ph.D.
In January 2015, Professor Julie Trager and I began a two-week initiative entitled "Let's Write and Turn It On" to emphasize the importance of writing across the academic disciplines and to increase use of Turnitin at Cerritos College. Our initiative encouraged all faculty members to assign a writing assignment to be submitted and graded on Turnitin within the first two weeks of the semester. We distributed fliers and hung up posters that explained our initiative across campus. We also presented the features of Turnitin at meetings of the Faculty Senate and at the meetings of many of our academic divisions. Finally, we met with faculty for one-on-one tutorials in our Cerritos College Center for Teaching Excellence. Many faculty members joined us in our promotion efforts by sharing their success stories with colleagues.
We’ve established that engaging in contract cheating hampers learning and a form of misconduct so egregious there are now laws against it around the world.
