  1. "Don’t Copy that Code!” Using a CMS to Develop a Discipline-Specific Plagiarism Tutorial Kelly Diamond, West Virginia University Libraries Head: WVU Libraries’ Office of Curriculum & Instructional Support Martin Dunlap, West Virginia University Libraries Engineering Librarian

  2. Background • WVU Plagiarism Avoidance Tutorial • Blackboard (eCampus) • Web-Based (Qualtrics) • Completion required for Engineering 101 (First Semester Engineering course)

  3. Problem • WVU Plagiarism Avoidance Tutorial for general undergraduate audience • Liaison reported engineering students need to understand ethical use of computer code for Engineering 102 (Primarily a coding class using MATLAB) • Students’ misconceptions about re-using computer code

  4. Solution • Create a module specifically designed for the Engineering students. • Use the WVU Plagiarism Avoidance Tutorial as a template. • Use Blackboard as a delivery platform • Collaboratively create content

  5. Designing Content:Learning Objectives Students will • Recognize common myths about citing computer code. • Articulate why citing computer code is necessary • Articulate when it is necessary to cite computer code • Articulate what common knowledge means regarding computer code. • Recognize citation methods for computer code and for open source code. • Cite computer code using an accepted format.

  6. Developing Content • Videos created with PowerPoint and Screencast-o-matic (paid version) • MODULE 0: Introduction to the Tutorial • MODULE 1: Common Myths Debunked • MODULE 2: When Should I Cite? • MODULE 3: How Should I Cite? • Script uploaded and captions added

  7. Building the Tutorial in Blackboard • Course Shell on Development Server • Content Folder (Videos) • Videos uploaded in Content Folders using My MediaSite • Adaptive Release Set • Quiz Function • Self-test: no grades reported or recorded • Three Self-Tests created • Orientation; Module 1; Module 2 • Adaptive Release set

  8. Taking the Tutorial • Students watch video • Students take self-test • Self-test completion triggers the adaptive release so the next video segment opens • Repeat • Students take final exam • Grade is exported into gradebook

  9. Implementing Tutorial • Faculty can request that the tutorial be migrated into their classes through WVU’s eCampus Request Service (ERS) • Students access Tutorial via a side menu.

  10. Evaluating the Tutorial • Lack of response to email • One professor used it • End of semester / contract • Plan a more aggressive assessment for Fall 2019
