Abstract

The article examines issues of academic integrity under conditions of forced distance learning. An analysis of the current state of affairs in the university educational environment in the field of compliance with the principles of academic integrity was carried out. In the course of the study, respondents were asked to complete a survey aimed at determining the phenomena and factors that concern students in the conditions of forced distance learning of the 2020-2022 academic year and to decide on issues of academic integrity. Interviews were also conducted with student volunteers from various courses and universities who studied or are studying in conditions of forced distance learning. The results showed that, unfortunately, the percentage of students who regularly use cheating and incorrect borrowing has grown over these two years, but the reasons for this require further study, but it can already be said that the main factors that influence the manifestations of academic dishonesty in the environment students are: a new learning environment (full online learning), the lack of systematic work on the formation of an academic culture and a combination of low motivation in online learning and a low level of independent work skills among students in a new environment. Based on the results obtained, recommendations were formulated both for participants in the educational process in the context of countering and preventing cases of academic dishonesty in online learning. Digital tools recommended for use in online learning include: Respondus LockDown Browser, Respondus Monitor, ProctorU, Purdue OWL, RefWorks, Grafiati, Unplag, Self Control. The integrated use of these digital tools will both control specific manifestations of academic dishonesty and form a culture of academic integrity based on openness and understanding of the importance of this process for students.
