Overview of CIRTL’s activities

Our T&L enhancement manager Laura Lee works with teaching grant holders around recruitment processes, setting up codes, navigating ethics, procurement, budgets, reporting. These grants are a really great way to get experience as a PI. Laura very much puts the R in CIRTL.

Nurturing post docs to take the giant step to PI. #researchleadership We find small teaching grants helpful for academic staff to cut their teeth in hiring practices, managing budgets etc. Often the first time they’ve had this experience. www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Two triangles containing examples of intellectual virtues and intellectual vices as well as actions that demonstrate these virtues or vices.

The taxonomy explores student actions such as not acting on feedback, improper citation, deliberate use of GenAI or similar in assignments, locating these on a gradient of academic impropriety. Take this short course to ensure this topic is touched on in your teaching www.ucc.ie/en/cirtl/pro...

Two sides of the same coin: a taxonomy of academic integrity and impropriety

Cutting through the jargon, this paper by Katy Dineen & @lorettag.bsky.social on ‘virtues and vices in academic integrity’ provides a useful taxonomy to better understand academic integrity and the actions that contravene it. #GenAI #highereducation www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.... #eduSky
