Case Studies Case Study #1 LEARN THE CULTURE RESEARCHBASED STUDY STRATEGIES ACADEMIC RESEARCH & INTEGRITY Aaliyah is taking an introductory literature class. Her instructor assigns the students to write a book review describing a novel they have read.

She agrees with the views expressed by two of the reviewers and decides to describe their opinions in her book review. Because she is drawing on the reviewers’ opinions – not facts – and because she agrees with those opinions, Aaliyah does not include references for the two reviews. Has Aaliyah violated AI Policy?

Case Studies Case Study #3 LEARN THE CULTURE RESEARCHBASED STUDY STRATEGIES ACADEMIC RESEARCH & INTEGRITY Johannes is taking a course in modern Latin American literature & languages. The class is conducted in Spanish. Johannes has fallen behind in the class and hasn’t begun a 10 -page essay due the next morning. Stressed about the essay, Johannes stays up until 3 a. m. to finish a draft and immediately emails it to his mother, asking her to point out any grammar errors and suggest revisions to strengthen his arguments. When Johannes wakes up at 9 a. m. , he finds a reply email from his mother, incorporates her suggestions, and turns the paper in on time at 11 a. m. Has Johannes violated SU’s AI policy? Why or why not? What if all writing assignments for the class must be in Spanish, and Johannes’ mother is a native Spanish speaker? Now, has Johannes violated policy? What if, in addition, Johannes’ mother has included a passage from a Spanishlanguage encyclopedia in the revisions she sent to him? Is there a violation now? 23
