๐ŸŽ“ Calling all postgraduate masters students registered in Ireland or recent alumni looking to hear the student's voice on the subject of plagiarism in higher education: mapping student attitudes, ethical perspectives, and institutional responses.  ๐ŸŽ“
Michele Pringle is a fourth-year doctoral student in the EdD programme at the Dublin City University Institute of Education, who is conducting research for her doctoral thesis. Professor Martin Brown and Professor Anne Lodge from the DCU School of Policy and Practice are supervising this research.

The survey aims to gather students’ understanding of plagiarism and guide interventions that support a culture of academic integrity. This research seeks to uncover correlations between student attitudes and variables, such as academic discipline, ethnicity, and current HEI affiliation.  For more information, and a link if you wish to participate, please see the poster below.
