THE CEU LEAPS ACADEMIC HONOR CODE Academic integrity in Centro Escolar University is your commitment to and show proof of honesty and good moral behavior in the academic setting. This is most relevant to the University at this time, especially that online learning will be employed in all courses. Your commitment to academic integrity shows respect for your own work and the work of your peers. This means doing your own work, writing your own papers and properly citing your resources. This means taking an online quiz without the help from your textbooks or friends. This can also mean reporting someone you suspect has cheated on an online exam or other online assignments. This means having the integrity to do the right thing, even when no one is looking. This means upholding the academic honesty policies set forth by the University in online learning. Having academic integrity means that others can trust you. The people with whom you deal with knows that you can be relied on to act honestly and to do what you say you will do. When people know that you believe in doing the right thing, and that your behavior is consistent with that belief, they trust you. Developing good ethical habits, while you are in still in college, will help you as you enter the workplace and face ethical issues.

Plagiarism is part of the concerns of academic integrity in the University. This happens when a student copies words, ideas, or any other materials from another source without giving credit. Plagiarism is unacceptable in any academic environment, and is a serious violation. You may lose all the credits that you received for the assignment, you may receive a grade of 5.0 or you may be expelled from the University. The following are the policies and guidelines that will be followed by each student: 1. Students shall know the following:

• Answers to homework, quizzes, and exams must be their own work (except for assignments that explicitly permit collaboration).

• They may not share their solutions to homework, quizzes, or exams with

anyone else unless explicitly permitted by the teacher. This includes anything written or done by them, as well as any official solutions provided by the teacher.

• They may not engage in any other activities that will dishonestly improve their

results or dishonestly improve or damage the results of others.

• They may not reproduce, distribute, transmit or share in any form or by any means including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, materials in the CEU LEAPS to friends, acquaintances, or any other person without the prior written permission of CEU.

• They may not plagiarize any part of requirements that you submit online

Accidental violations are the same as intentional violations. Here are some ways to avoid accidental violations:

• Understand what constitutes cheating and plagiarism.

• Give yourself enough time to research and write your papers, and to study for exams. When you wait until the last minute to write your papers or study for an exam, you are under more stress and more tempted to violate the academic honesty policies.

• Students shall associate yourself with students whom they believe to be highly

ethical. It helps to
