Purpose: The use of generative artificial intelligence (genAi) language models such as ChatGPT to write assignment text is well established. This paper aims to assess to what extent genAi can be used to obtain guidance on how to avoid detection when commissioning and submitting contract-written assignments and how workable the offered solutions…

With the advent of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence (AI) tools, students have a new instrument that can create writing samples for them, making it easy to violate academic integrity. A constructivist grounded theory multiple-case study was conducted to address faculty perceptions of ChatGPT as a tool for learning and teaching instead of a…

Background: Instances of academic dishonesty are common in online learning environments because difficulties in their detection result in considerably low degrees of risks.

In this study, we proposed a residual method to detect compromised items when a test can be partitioned into two subsets of items: secure…

Contract cheating -- outsourcing student assignments for a fee -- presents a growing threat to the integrity of higher education.

This paper presents the results of an exploratory study that examined engagement approaches of contract cheating services on the Twitter platform. The literature portrays the grey academic market as an invisible hand that magically delivers academic content at the click of a button, which leaves a wide gap in our understanding of their outreach…

In this work, we consider learning analytics for primary and secondary schools from the perspective of the designer of a learning system. We provide an overview of practically useful analytics techniques with descriptions of their applications and specific illustrations. We highlight data biases and caveats that complicate the analysis and its…
