Academic Integrity includes and extends beyond student conduct. Thanks to Bibek Dahal, MPhil who recently spotted this infographic that I created being used without attribution (in a social media post about ethics and integrity no less!)
I offer many of my materials as Open Access (OA) or Open Educational Resources (OER) and with a Creative license. This doesn’t mean that they should be appropriated and presented as anyone else’s original work, but instead that they can be used without paying any licensing fees or royalties. It also means that citing and referencing the original work is appropriate.
Here’s a citation for this infographic, which anyone is free to use with attribution. This infographic also appears in the introductory chapter of the Second Handbook of Academic Integrity (Springer, 2024):
