Academic Dishonesty: Developing and Implementing Institutional Policy ( Table of Contents )
$50 nonmember / $35 member; 2007; Item #0117
Drawing heavily from current literature, case law, and a survey of fifty-two North Park University faculty members, this publication provides an overview of academic dishonesty, paying particular attention to associated legal aspects. The guide defines the types and range of academic dishonesty; examines the causes and manifestations of dishonest behavior; analyzes the legal issues affecting academic misconduct: case law, due process, the content and communication of policies, sanctions, prevention, and detection; and provides guidance for administrators and faculty for assessing and restructuring their institutional policies and procedures.

Current Trends in Grades and Grading Practices in Higher Education: Results of the 2004 AACRAO Survey
$80 nonmember / $55 member; 2005; Item 0106
AACRAO's publication Current Trends in Grades and Grading Practices in Higher Education: Results of the 2004 AACRAO Survey continues the tradition of surveying grading practices in higher education first begun in 1920. Although much has changed in the world of academia since, grades have remained a central feature. This consistent importance and interest, as well as our members' role as the guardians of academic records, has been the impetus for AACRAO's continued study of grades and grading practices in American colleges and universities. The most recent study prior to this one was conducted in 1992.
