Recording of "Understanding Australian higher education: the private sector" webinar now available

At this coffee catch up we'll discuss private higher education in Australia. 10% of Australian higher education students choose to study at Institutes of Higher Education.  The sector comprises 134 teaching-focussed specialist Institutes; QILT data evidences that they earn consistently higher student satisfaction than their public counterparts. What do you want to know about private HE? What's is like to work in the sector? The intention of the session is to build members' awareness of the Australian higher education sector generally and the private sector specifically.

Presenters: Professor Christy Collis, Provost, Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors and Dr Raja Kannusamy
Head of Teaching and Learning, Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors.

CRADLE Seminar Series: Second Handbook of Academic Integrity (2024) launch - Dr Elaine Eaton and Prof Phillip Dawson
24 July 2024 12.00pm - 1.30pm (AEST)

Dr Sarah Elaine Eaton, Associate Professor, University of Calgary and Honorary Associate Professor Deakin University will lead this launch as the reference work's editor in chief. Contributors to the handbook will be on hand to answer questions and offer insights into their contributions, including CRADLE's Professor Phillip Dawson.

This major reference work spans three volumes, with 112 chapters contributed by 145 authors. All major topics related to academic integrity are covered including contract cheating, plagiarism, assessment security, and the impact of generative artificial intelligence on teaching, learning, assessment, and academic misconduct.

This broad and comprehensive reference work on academic integrity demonstrates commonalities and differences between regions and approaches on an international scale across many countries. It also engages with, and agitates, controversial debates such as, for example, the use of surveillance technologies to address academic misconduct and the causes of academic integrity breaches.

There is a burgeoning interest in the importance of academic integrity, how to safeguard it and how to address breaches appropriately. Join us for this compelling and topical presentation online.
