The AMBeR project aims to identify the range and nature of penalties applicable to cases of student plagiarism in UK Higher Education Institutions (HEI). The project involves a three-fold study of the regulatory and practical aspects of dealing with student plagiarism.
The first phase of the project involved a desktop survey of academic misconduct regulations currently applicable in UK HEI’s. Over 150 institutions responded to our request for information, representing a reponse rate of 94% from the sector. The full report and executive summary from the first phase of the project are now available.
The second phase of the project, conducted by the Academy JISC Academic Integrity Service investigated actual application of penalties for cases of student plagiarism by institutions. The full report and executive summary from this phase are now available.
Current research in this area is considering the feasibility of developing a generic penalty tariff for UK Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).
An update on this work was given at the UUK Event in November 2008 “Tackling plagiarism and academic misconduct” and new findings contained in the PowerPoint from the event.
We hope to have a first draft available Feb/Mar and are looking for institutions that may be interested in participating in the project.
If you are interested in participating please contact:
