| Project Summary | The diversionary option for academic misconduct was introduced into UBC’s Academic Calendar in September 2022 to provide students with a more direct, educative and streamlined path forward after an incident. A two-year pilot led by the Academic Integrity Hub in the Provost’s Office (2022-2024) implemented the diversionary process across the Faculties. Valuable knowledge has been gained across the Faculties and this project is a way to ensure that it continues to be captured in a thorough and comprehensive way. Through a collaboration between stakeholders involved in the diversionary process, this project will build on the introduction of diversion at UBC to create evidence-based resources for students, instructors, and decision-makers. This project presents an opportunity for greater pre-emptive and responsive dissemination of knowledge gained through this process to a broader audience and seeks to capture lessons learned by decision makers during the implementation of diversion at UBC. |
