As because of change in higher education at wider scale it is essential for every learner to
have an emphasize on academic knowledge as well as skills so that they could be able to carry
their skills in an appropriate way as well as their goals could be accomplished in an effective
manner. As academic integrity is said to be as putting value in operations in to authenticate

benefit of academic integrity which provides assistance to learner for sharing ideas as well as
information without having any fear associated with copying or getting misused along with
cheated by any other individual (Shook, Lee and Kim, 2020). So it is essential for every student
to take use of various concept so that it becomes easier for them to make proper and right
decisions along with gaining effective information. Academic integrity helps in developing
knowledge along with having creation of work which is particularly in in in individual that could

Education system could be analysed as a carrying in terms of digitalization as well as other
techniques of learning level that helps in enhancement of student by which it will become easier
for them for executing in economic activity as well as carrying out functions in a particular phase
of time.
Importance of academic integrity in higher education.
It has been evaluated that University students are generally emphasised in terms of
enhancing knowledge as well as increasing their skills by which their focus is on achieving their
goal in a timely manner. and for that higher education is determined as an important factor for
every individual as it signifies about emphasize on how one and visual could become a proper
learner so that they could be able to achieve their goals in a specific time. So for that higher
education should be considered in terms of academic integrity concept in university level
(Serkedakis, 2019). There is also a determination of enhancement of game which is said to be an
essential application for building skills of learners according to their academic knowledge, skills
as well as integrity. There are certain benefits as well as limitations of academic integrity which
are as follows:
Benefits:
Academic integrity is an important element due to dishonest behaviour and disestablished
learning. Higher standard is associated with academic integrity which is considered as beneficial
in safeguarding image of University as well as it increases contribution towards welfare and
wellbeing of society. Hence because of breaches in academic integrity it erodes image of public
trust and University in their academic endeavours. Along with that academic integrity is said to
be a concept which evaluates using of various possible manner for determining ideas of other
individuals in a proper manner.
Limitations:
As basic drawback of this kind of idea is it becomes difficult for students to share their ideas
with their friends which imposes a direct effect on team administration skill processes (Fuad and
Sawan, 2020). From above idea it has been determined that it is important that each learner
should access why academic integrity is relevant for them in order to have enhancement of
higher level of education by which they could be able to achieve their objectives in coming
future within a specific period of time. It is evaluated that by implementing academic integrity in
higher education it’s said to be beneficial for university as well as for students by which they
2

could focus on promoting their ethics in education industry. Along with that it also determines a
detailed assessment which is required for carrying out pertinent task as well as tactics which are
executed by learner in their project and assignments.
Implication of academic misconduct.
Academic misconduct is defined as a various types of cheating along with ill-mannered
conduct. And motive of this is to accomplish academic advantage of other individual learner.
There are various types of rules as well as regulations that are related with academic
misbehaviour like ok if a learner is involved in academic misconduct than any type of financial
charges could be implemented by owner of work on them. Also so it is essential for learner to
have an emphasize on carrying out of work by implementing legal measures which are helpful so
that issues of misconduct could be resolved within a specific period of time. It is said to be a type
of academic misconduct like false information, change in documents, damage associated to
intellectual property, disturbance in classroom and so on. Along with that there are various types
of implications that are related to academic conduct which is identified as a large what is crucial
for students to have an emphasis on proper learning that could lead to create critical issues.
Academic misconduct could be stated as a violation in terms of policies of college by tempering
with grades as well as obtaining any type of test as well as projects. As for example by obtaining
copy related test before test is carried. There is various type of effect of this kind of concept that
could lead to have financial loss which are associated with future projects to universities. This
type of application creates and implication in imposing direct effect on objective of learner in
future coming period of time as well as it reduces opportunities which are related to success as
well as growth (Fallon, Kurtz and Mueller, 2018). Therefore, it is considered as a responsibility
of tutor along with senior staff to provide an offer of effective learning to their students so that
they could be able to keep their focus on avoiding various types of academic misconduct. This
type of misconduct is not needed to be adopted for enhancing quality of work in a systematic and
effective way.
SECTION 2
Reflection of steps that are taken as well as difficulties encountered in producing game.
As in order to design a game by learners as it is not identified as an easy method due to it
requires to have higher knowledge along with level of competence. According to my opinion
3

when I was having focus on my game. I took information by implementing various questionnaire
as well as surveys method in a systematic way. Moreover, next step was important for me in
terms of adopting information which is gained by having save as well as secured so that it will
not use by other individual in their next level. As visualise interface as well as image of user is
required to look for game to be more attractive which could attract other individual learners. My
directivity is to increase awareness related to launching as well as introducing game in
university. In terms of student as well as asking students to provide them feedback along with
their reviews related to game that could be e beneficial for me in performing any kind of
enhancement if it required. I was also confirmed about various kinds of issues along with
problems that are occurred during by enhancement of game such as assessing priority which is
related to activities, maintaining information in a proper way, handling design and development
for appearance of game which is identified as a more attractive in order to resolve various kinds
of problems and issues in an effective manner. It is relevant for me to carry this game in an
efficient manner so that it will be beneficial for student in terms of their understanding to carry
out this game in a proper manner along with that it could also lead to analyse it. As I handled
wall activities according in terms of their deadline which could assist me in improving my game
as well as completing my task in an effective way. Along with that in addition to this for
producing game I evaluated that it is not identified as an easy method and it requires a proper
amount of focus on technical as well as non technical knowledge as without having these skills it
will be difficult to produce game carry activity in a proper way.
Reflection on skills that are learned in academic year as well as emphasize on producing
game.
In academic year, I was able to rise my improvement level as there are various kinds of
learning which was offered by my tutor as well as mentor. This learning provides me an
assistance in in improving my knowledge for carrying out various activities in an efficient
manner. Therefore, I was focusing on enhancing my skills on making game more presentable as
well as attractive in front of other students. Along with this there were various types of skills as
well as knowledge which are required by me in order to adopt so that game will be able to
complete in a specific time period with effectiveness. There are various kinds of skills which
were adopted by me in order to perform my activity in an effective manner which are technical,
problem solving, presentation skills as well as communication skills which are identified by me
4

in order to provide enhancement in game. In university it is important determine the situation as
well as condition for performing enhancement in game also how to resolve any type of problem
in a systematic manner. As evaluated that major reason for performing enhancement of game
was identified as a finance as well as students that are related to relevance of academic integrity.
In academic year I was learning about innovating elements which is an essential element in
handling with other individual in a proper manner also it helps in increasing understanding
related to how to implement data in a proper manner. Also in addition by superior presence in
university it could enhanced my confidence level along with other knowledge skills in an
effective manner. Moreover, it is important for me to create innovative thoughts in terms of work
as well as performing activities in order to achieve professional goals in a specific time of period.
On basis of provided details it generally determines that it is not essential for students to be
active during their academic year so that both of objectives could be achieved in terms of setting
objectives in a specific time of period. By implementing these skills, it was possible for me to
carry a demonstration of link to other individual in a proper manner.

essential for student to have an understanding of being capable which is related to academic
integrity as well as in university. Along with that this report explains about decision which are to
be taken that are associated with brief as well as over views of academic integrity. There is an
