Thursday 6 June, 9:00- 17:00 BST (Online)
In partnership with the HEFCW-funded Welsh Integrity and Assessment Network, QAA is hosting the second Academic Integrity Symposium on Thursday 6 June between 9.00 – 17.00 (BST). The event is funded by HEFCW.
The WIAN was established in September 2021 via grant arrangements with HEFCW and represents the Welsh higher education sector’s commitment to strengthening academic integrity, promoting inclusive and authentic assessment practice, and combatting academic misconduct. The foundation of the Network is QAA’s Academic Integrity Charter, of which all Welsh universities are signatories.
The Network is chaired by Professor Michael Draper (Swansea University) and Dr Mike Reddy (University of South Wales) who are also members of the UK Academic Integrity Advisory Group.
The wider membership is representative of staff, students and learners from all regulated higher education providers in Wales, which includes the nine universities and two further education colleges, and NUS Wales. From 2023-24 onwards, the Network is open to all tertiary education providers in Wales, reflective of the transition to the new Commission for Tertiary Education and Research (CTER).
The upcoming symposium event will be grounded in the themes of the Network:
- inclusive and authentic assessment practice
- digital assessment
- innovative practice in artificial intelligence
- students and learners as co-creators of assessment
- Welsh language and academic integrity.
The Symposium is accepting proposals for the event until 10 April at 17.00.
This event will be of interest to staff, students and learners at tertiary education providers, including:
- Academic staff
- Professional services staff
- Student and learner representatives
- Student and learner representative bodies, including student and learner advice/student and learner support teams
- Other staff, students and learners with an interest in assessment and academic integrity.
