Conference Theme: Almost all institutions in the higher education sector have developed policies and procedures to encourage educational/academic honesty/integrity in one form or another. These policies are, of necessity, very general in nature, and their interpretation and implementation-the practical aspects-are typically left to academics and administrators at different levels, starting from tutors and teaching assistants to Faculty Deans and members of relevant university level committees. The translation of the policies to practice is rarely obvious and not necessarily uniform across different disciplines. The central theme of this conference is to encourage scholarly discussion among practitioners regarding the various issues we face in this translation process. Accordingly, the overarching theme of 6APCEI is From Policy to Practice-bridging the gap. Naturally, this theme subsumes a number of relevant topics. Papers are being solicited on all topics relevant to this theme. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: Policy, practice and pedagogy: . Impact of Pedagogical practice on academic integrity . Academic Integrity and Assessment Design . Peer Learning and Academic Integrity . Academic Integrity and demand driven education Values and Knowledge . Disciplinary Traditions and Academic Integrity . Reversing the roles: student driven approach to academic integrity . Academic Integrity, Professional Integrity and Student Training . Academic Integrity and Research Ethics . Honour Codes, Academic integrity and Australasian Education . Academic integrity and Cultural Sensitivity Academic Integrity and Emerging Trends . Online Education and Academic Integrity . Academic Integrity-Compliance Check or Quality Assurance? . Academic Integrity and TransNational Education . Academic Integrity and sustainable Education Keynote Speaker: Professor Donald McCabe Don is an alumnus of Princeton University and NYU. He teaches strategy courses (Business Policy & Strategy; Strategic Management) at Rutgers University and devotes his research agenda to questions of student integrity in their academic work. He is the Founding President of the Center for Academic Integrity (USA), is widely regarded as the father of academic integrity research, and well cited in media including the Wall Street Journal, Business Week, New York Times, Washington Post and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
