Surveillance & weaponisation of integrity (part 4) of tackling e-cheating & assessment security

Episode 35

In this final instalment, Phill takes a holistic look at the assessment security endeavour and considers how our expectations of academic integrity may evolve both within and beyond an institution.

Welcome to a special four part series of our Integrity Matters vidcast on Tackling e-cheating and Assessment Security with Professor Phillip Dawson, in collaboration with The Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE).

In this final instalment, Phill takes a holistic look at the assessment security endeavour and considers how our expectations of academic integrity may evolve both within and beyond an institution. With technology and surveillance moving faster than educational discourse, he advocates for checks and balances to avoid a weaponisation of academic integrity that inflicts harm.

How do we balance assessment security as the more adversarial mission, with the promotion of values-based academic integrity?
