Five years ago we started Integrity Hour, an online community of Practice by and for Canadian higher education #AcademicIntegrity enthusiasts, professionals, educators, researchers, and students.
Today we had our five-year celebration, which also served as a closure of sorts. After serving as a co-steward of the community almost since the beginning, Dr. Beatriz Moya has started the next chapter of her career.
We are working with some of our long-standing partners to reconceptualize what the next iteration of Integrity Hour will look like. For now, we will take a little pause as we regroup.
At our anniversary celebration meeting today, Brooklin Schneider encouraged us to share this guide widely, so we are posting it here, as an open access resource: “Integrity Hour: A Guide to Developing and Facilitating an Online Community of Practice for Academic Integrity”.
Our collective outputs have been collaboratively conceptualized and co-developed. Here are a couple of other resources we have worked on over the years:
Academic Integrity Leadership and Community Building in Canadian Higher Education
In my remarks today I shared that being part of this weekly community of practice has influenced and informed my thinking, advocacy, and practice in way I could never have imagined.
My gratitude to everyone who has been part of our community, sharing wisdom, knowledge, and resources. What an incredible half a decade it has been!
