Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper explores the impact of the [redacted]’s Post-Discipline Educational (PDE) program: an institution-wide skills-based academic integrity intervention for supporting students following a finding of academic misconduct. This collaborative and holistic program launched in 2018, and provides tailored educational support from librarians, writing instructors, tutors, and academic integrity staff. While anecdotal evidence supports this educational programming, prior to this study no formal evaluation at our institution had examined its impact. This evaluation took place during the COVID-19 pandemic, creating an opportunity to gain insight on the impact of transitioning to an online learning environment in cases of academic misconduct. Results indicated that the PDE program positively affected students’ intention to seek supports related to their academic and non-academic needs, and increased students’ confidence in their academic skills and ability to avoid future academic misconduct. Findings also suggest that the pandemic may have been an influencing factor in students’ misconduct allegations and their ability to get back on track.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
