Fostering academic integrity in an online environment entails more than just making sure your students don’t cheat or plagiarize. Shared conversations can help educate students about our (shared) responsibilities in creating an honest, legitimate learning environment. This one-hour webinar will look at how to design your online learning environment to address academic integrity and investigate a range of ways to structure your assignments and use Canvas tools to help guide students toward making good choices online.

During May Session, the Main Office will be open: Monday – Thursday: 7:45 – 4:30 pm. Friday: 7:45 – 4:00 pm.

Participation in Big Ten CourseShare is growing, but it’s only part of the picture of how university instructors are using technology to share their language beyond the Twin Cities (TC) campus. During 2018-2019, with the support of the Classics and American Indian departments, TC and Morris launched a pilot intersystem exchange, in which first-year Dakota and second-year Latin courses were sent from TC to Morris. This pilot was successful, with a small number of Latin students from Morris enrolling Fall semester, and about equal numbers TC and Morris students in Dakota both semesters.
