Announcements Please pick up an “Attendance” Form Submit Final Project paper into the big cardboard box Submit AI Tutorial Certificate into the Attendance Drop Boxes There is no final exam, today is our last class session for this semester Final grades will be available through UAonline after December 19th

2 Ethics and Academic Integrity

3 What characteristics differentiate professions from other occupations? Professions: physician, lawyer, engineer, … Other occupations: sales clerk, plumber, fashion model, …

4 Ethics Ethics or moral philosophy deals with the morality of decisions/actions. Laws only tell us what we are not allowed to do, they do not provide guidelines about what should we do. There are code of conducts for the engineering profession provided by, for example, the different professional societies. These codes provide guidelines for the engineer to make decisions.

5 Engineers uphold and advance the integrity, honor and dignity of the engineering profession by: I. using their knowledge and skill for the enhancement of human welfare; II. being honest and impartial, and serving with fidelity their clients (including their employers) and the public; and III. striving to increase the competence and prestige of the engineering profession. For Example: ASME Code of Ethics of Engineers Source: http://www.asme.org/groups/educational-resources/engineers-solve-problems/code-of-ethics-of-engineers

6 Engineers have many ethical responsibilities Safety, health and welfare of the public Need to consider environmental impact and sustainable development Issue public statements in an objective and truthful manner …  You already carry these and more responsibilities as part of you engineering education!

7 Academic Integrity – Academic Honesty

8 UAA Student Code of Conduct Examples of forms of academic dishonesty: Using material sources not authorized by the faculty member during an examination or assignment; Utilizing devices that are not authorized by the faculty member during an examination or assignment; Providing assistance to another student or receiving assistance from another student during an examination or assignment in a manner not authorized by the faculty member; Presenting as their own the ideas or works of another person without proper acknowledgment of sources; Knowingly permitting their works to be submitted by another person without the faculty member’s permission; Acting as a substitute or utilizing a substitute in any examination or assignment; Fabricating data in support of laboratory or field work; Possessing, buying, selling, obtaining, or using a copy of any material intended to be used as an instrument of examination or in an assignment in advance of its administration; Altering grade records of their own or another student’s work; or Offering a monetary payment or other remuneration in exchange for a grade.

9 Categories of Academic Dishonesty Bribery Cheating Collusion (illegal collaboration) Enabling Ethical misconduct Fabrication Falsification Impersonation Plagiarism …

10 Why might Students be Tempted to be Dishonest? Culture of Replication Time Panic Lack of Skills Lack of Knowledge Disregard for Course Goals Laziness Education as a Means to an End—No Intrinsic Value

11 Academic Dishonesty is Harmful Penalties for Academic Dishonesty – Dismissal from program – Stripped of degree – Suspension – Expulsion Damage to the reputation of the University Don’t tolerate cheaters  report them Allegations must be in writing, signed by the complaining party, and submitted to the Dean of Students Office (aydos@uaa.alaska.edu)

12 Plagiarism According to Merriam Webster’s Online Dictionary, to “plagiarize” means: To steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own; To use (another’s production) without crediting the source; To commit literary theft; To present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source.

13 Avoid Plagiarism by Learning Proper Citation Techniques There are many resources available to you: Your professor The Reading and Writing Center Librarians at the Library Books Your advisor or mentor Other professors Your classmates

14 SafeAssign™ - Introduction SafeAssign™ is a plagiarism prevention and detection service SafeAssign is incorporated in Blackboard Instructors can opt to use it How does it work?

15 Example – Direct Copy from Wikipedia.com A mixture of chemicals is said to be zeotropic if the composition of the vapor and the liquid phase at the vapor-liquid equilibrium state are never the same. Dew point and bubble point curve do not touch each other over the entire composition range with the exception of the pure components (curve end points). Mixtures where the both curves are touching each other in at least a single point - indicating the same composition in the vapor and liquid phase - are azeotropic mixtures.

16 SafeAssign™ - Report BUSTED

17 Example - Rephrased For a zeotropic mixture of chemicals the composition of the vapor and the liquid phase at the vapor-liquid equilibrium state are never the same. Bubble point and dew point curve do not touch each other over the entire composition range with the exception of the pure components. Azeotropic mixtures are mixtures where both curves are touching each other in at least a single point, indicating the same composition in the vapor and liquid phase.

18 SafeAssign™ - Report BUSTED

19 Example – Using different sources For a zeotropic mixture, the concentrations of the vapor and the liquid phase are never the same. Bubble point and dew point curve do not touch each other over the entire composition range with the exception of the pure components. An azeotrope is a mixture of two or more liquids in such a way that its components cannot be altered by simple distillation.

20 SafeAssign™ - Report BUSTED

21 Example – Using a book, rephrasing in your own words and reference your source A zeotropic mixture is a mixture of different chemicals having different volatilities. When a phase change occurs at constant pressure, e.g. evaporation, the volumetric composition and saturation temperature will change. Therefore, a zeotropic mixture can be distilled into its components. An azeotropic mixture is differentiated from a zeotropic mixture by the fact that an azeotrpoic mixture does not change its volumetric composition or saturation temperature during phase change [1].

22 SafeAssign™ - Report A

23 SafeAssign™ - Draft Instructors can opt that students can see the SafeAssign™ report before final submission SafeAssign™ will show you when it found a paper from other student(s) that matches yours Only the instructor will know the other student(s) name(s)  all will get into trouble Guard your work!

26 Assignments due by Monday 12/10 Take the end of the semester survey (link on blackboard under Assignments) – if taken by Monday 12/10 your lowest exam score will be not counted towards your final grade. Take the Course Evaluation (IDEA) on blackboard (available tomorrow, 12/5). After you filled out the survey please send me an email stating that you successfully submitted the evaluation. If I receive your email by 12/10 your lowest homework score will be not counted towards your final grade. Hand in your project reports!
