Academic Integrity in Research & Writing: A Self-Enrollable Micro-Course

Please note: This micro-course and its credential replace the Libraries' Using and Citing Sources micro-course.

The purpose of this micro-course is to give you a more in-depth understanding of:

  • academic integrity and plagiarism
  • how and when to use sources
  • how to quote, paraphrase, and cite

You can also use this micro-course to learn more about citation styles, or how to give credit to existing ideas in your work in your academic discipline.

This micro-course takes about 45-60 minutes to complete. At the end, you can complete a quiz -- if you earn at least an 80%, you will receive a credential of course completion, which is a digital badge.

You can also earn credentials when you complete the learning content on academic integrity, each of the citation styles, and different community expectations around giving credit.
