This assignment is to be completed in lieu of the missed session.  Please leave a hardcopy in my box at the reception latest by November 9th.  Campus Cheating and Code of Ethics Work in groups of 4-5 students.  Create a short anonymous survey with 10 questions exploring students’ experiences with and attitudes toward academic cheating. Your survey should include questions on areas such as: - forms of academic cheating - attitudes toward cheating - reasons why students may cheat - academic pressure and peer influence - plagiarism - use of AI and digital tools - awareness of university rules on academic integrity Use a combination of Yes/No, multiple-choice, and Likert-scale questions. Do not ask respondents for their names or any identifying information. Each group should collect responses from 10 university students. After collecting the responses, prepare a short summary of your findings. Identify: - 2 to 3 interesting patterns or results - anything that surprised your group - what the responses suggest about students’ attitudes toward academic integrity You do not need to conduct complex statistical analysis. Simple percentages or a short table/chart are sufficient. Based on your survey findings and group discussion, develop a Student Code of Ethics containing at least 5 principles. The code may address: - honesty in academic work - plagiarism and proper use of sources - responsible use of AI - collaboration and individual responsibility - fairness and respect - responsibility for maintaining academic integrity Include a brief explanation of why each principle is important. Prepare two- page long group document containing: 1. Your final survey 2. A short summary of the responses 3. Your Student Code of Ethics 4. A brief reflection of approximately 150 words on what your group learned from the exercise.
