BMP3003 Further Academic Skills
Academic integrity is meant by the demonstration and commitment
of being honest in the university. It is fundamental at the university
as it regards to giving credit to those people who original ideas are
being exploited. In simple words, students must acknowledge the
contribution of sources that are used in preparing assignments. It
plays an important role to learn,, teach and research at the university.
It enables teachers and scholars the freedom to create new
knowledge, ideas and creative works while acknowledging and
respecting the other's work. The following points will further suggest
how academic integrity is important at the university:
• When a student performs a task with honest behaviour then it
offers a opportunity of success.
• When a student perform tasks with honest and moral behaviour
then it leads to avoiding bad consequences such as expel from the
university or failing a task.
This game can be played individually, by pair and groups as well.
If more people are involved and interested in the game then, the
effectiveness can also be improved. If people play the game
together then it will help in enhancing the effectiveness and
results.
The students are required to fill the general details such as name,
contact number, standard, address and many more. It will help in
making contact with them, if required.
The game has several stages to perform. When the students
perform the game, then, each stage will be improved in their way.
Moreover, the students will be given with some cards to take
support from. This card can be utilised when they do not know the
answer but it can be taken by solving some quick puzzles.
