Academic integrity one-to-ones

Have you got questions about Turnitin, referencing, paraphrasing, using generative AI tools, or any other aspect of academic integrity? Look no further! This is not a workshop or a taught session, but a chance to bring any questions you wish to discuss. No question is too silly! Because everyone will be seen individually in order to provide personalised advice, you may be asked to wait for a few minutes until someone is available to speak with you. All sessions are online.
