Call it what it is: Cheating! From Disconnected Spaces to Engaged Learning-Web-based Instruction in a Culture of Entitlement
Abstract: As students become increasingly more technologically skilled, concerns for maintaining high academic standards on-line continually challenge practitioners of web-based teaching environments. Despite the obvious advancements that digital learning opportunities provide learners, the increase of access to education via technology raises many new ethical concerns. Allegations of plagiarism and cheating in institutions of higher learning have rapidly increased with access and availability to electronically based media, particularly the internet. To address these concerns, a series of collaborative visual media video pieces were designed by faculty and students as alternative pedagogical tools to address academic integrity and honesty on-line.
