Academic Integrity

• 1. Case Studies

  A major advantage of using Case Studies is that they provide students with the opportunity to engage with real-world scenarios, analyze situations and data, and cope with messy or ill-structured problems. Resource: The Case Study Cookbook

• 2. Performance Tests or Professional Presentations

  In a performance test, students are required to perform a complex skill or procedure or create a product to demonstrate that they can apply the knowledge and skills they have learned. This could take the form of personal expression via a variety of free non-text mediums: video, audio, multimedia or free text mediums: Prezi, Google Slides, Zoho Show, Microsoft Sway, Canva, Swipe or Slidebean or use them in combination.

• 3. Student Portfolios

  A portfolio contains a purposefully selected subset of a student’s work. A Final Product portfolio would contain electronic samples that best exemplify the student’s growing ability to apply the relevant knowledge and skills taught in the course. Resource: What to Include in a Student Portfolio

• 4. Infographics

  Infographs provide the student with the opportunity to visually summarize a topic with supporting evidence. Free sources include Piktochart and Infogram or PowerPoint.

• 5. Take home, or in our current case, stay home exams

  Take home exams allow instructors to give students exam problems which will take longer than a class period to manage and/or require the students to use a variety of references. These exams can be notoriously tough, yet logistically easier to implement.
