Spring 2021 Survey

After an initial exploratory survey of ENGL101 students in Fall 2020, the Writing Center and Raugust Library administered surveys to campus in three groups (undergraduate, graduate, and faculty) in Spring 2021. The student academic integrity questions were appended to the Library Satisfaction Survey, which is administered to students and faculty on alternating years. The faculty survey was a standalone entity. 

Below are reports of responses from the three groups. The April 2021 "Setting Expectations" workshop provides some commentary on the survey results and a few ways to address the academic integrity concerns at play on campus.

Fall 2020 ENGL101 Student Survey

The Writing Center and Raugust Library surveyed ENGL101 students in September 2020 to gauge their familiarity with citations and other academic integrity topics. We received 47 responses.
