Vretta vs Seneca Integrity Matters

Limited bandwidth is a common challenge faced by most schools, especially at the primary level where internet connectivity is usually restricted or limited for a variety of reasons. The Vretta App is custom-built to support DTab, designed as a large scale interactive assessment platform that functions in an offline environment. A custom data structure allows for the offline collection of data. After completing the assessment, wi-fi is enabled to synchronize the data from the tablet to the online data structure that is accessible to administrators for the purpose of evaluation. We follow the highest quality standards to design and develop our tests and learning materials. Our reputation rests on our steadfast pursuit of delivering outstanding learning and testing experiences to students.

Seneca’s Integrity Matters application (app) is intended to enhance students’ knowledge and understanding of academic integrity that will help them make informed decisions. This app has been adapted from the University of Waterloo’s Foundations for Academic Success App, which was developed with funding from eCampus Ontario. This is an open access application with a Creative Commons license, allowing other institutions to copy and customize this tutorial to their own needs. Seneca acknowledges and credits the work of University of Waterloo. Seneca is a member of the International Centre for Academic Integrity (ICAI), an association founded to combat cheating and plagiarism in higher education. ICAI defines Academic Integrity as a commitment to the six fundamental values; honesty, respect, trust, fairness, responsibility and courage. (ICAI, Fundamental Values Project, 1999, 2013). The app is designed around these values. The Seneca Integrity Matters app consists of engaging modules and games that will help you better understand academic integrity, some common misconceptions, and real-world applications of the concepts and policies. The modules provide examples of scenarios that connect the fundamental values to everyday practices. Your ability to apply these value in your own work is necessary to be a successful and ethical learner. At Seneca, the Academic Integrity policy is found here.
