University-wide Development
Heightened community concern about the prevalence of student academic misconduct led Griffith University in 2007 to remodel its institutional integrity strategy. With the leadership of Associate Professor Anna Stewart, engagement in standards-based, institutional, sector-based and international benchmarking led to the identification of a range of good practices in preventing, detecting and managing cases of academic misconduct among students. The integration of these practices into the Institutional Framework for Promoting Academic Integrity among Students was trialled initially in semester 2, 2007 and semester 1, 2008 across 35% of the University’s student body before university-wide roll out of the trial from the beginning of semester 2, 2008 until the end of 2009 followed by full implementation from the beginning of 2010.
