On behalf of Jude Carroll:
Defining, detecting and designing out plagiarism : academic
responsibilities in a holistic approach to deterring plagiarism
An online course from the Oxford Centre for Staff and Learning Development
7 February - 9 March 2007
This intensive introduction aims to give you time and space to explore
some of the complex issues around plagiarism within a supported online
environment. The course has been designed for teachers and trainers who
are newcomers to the field or interested in exploring the ideas behind
the headlines often encountered in the academic and popular press
concerning student plagiarism.
The course title reflects the holistic approach we plan to encourage.
Often, people come to plagiarism thinking it's a simple matter of
telling students they must not do it, or teaching referencing, or
purchasing an electronic detection facility. This course will help you
to identify ways your own (and possibly your colleagues') practice needs
to change to deter students from submitting work that is not their own.
All of our online courses are designed around frequent opportunities for
you to interact with others on the course. You will be supported by a
series of scheduled tasks, selected key readings, specially developed
course resources, and experienced course tutors. The February run of the
course will be tutored by Jude Carroll, Jill Pickard and Jenny Moon.
The course costs £245.
