Promoting Integrity at the Classroom Level:
Establish Connection to College
We must consider the overall quality of our students' experiences on campus"”and not just in our classrooms — "if the likelihood of cheating is to be minimized." (Ashworth and Bannister, 1997) Activities that decrease anonymity and increase community serve as deterrents to cheating. (McKenzie, 1998)
Ideas for Getting Students Connected
School Daze is held each Fall semester and is a great way for Schoolcraft College students to learn more about clubs, organizations, and services available to them. School Daze takes place under a big tent located between the Liberal Arts Building and the Forum Building.
As a way to promote academic integrity, attending School Daze could be a valuable use of class time. Taking students to other events such as speakers sponsored by the International Institute or by attending the Multicultural Fair also help students build a connection to the college.
