It was based on my final project for the class, which was a survey-based study looking into the relationship between remote testing\/assignments and academic integrity in college students. I worked with two other students in the class to develop and carry out this research. We were specifically looking to see how students enrolled in in-person courses use outside sources during closed-note assignments and tests\/quizzes. The survey was anonymous and we asked students a variety of questions about their use of tools such as Google and AI. Our hypothesis was that students enrolled in in-person courses would report frequent use of unauthorized resources during unsupervised assessments. However, the results were more complex than this, and not exactly what we thought we would see, likely because this was a self-reported survey. Nonetheless, we collected valuable and insightful data that helped us better understand the factors of academic dishonesty, and develop ideas for future research that can provide educators with insights for upholding academic standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.goucher.edu\/verge\/files\/2026\/01\/FIN_PSY002_25_FIN.pdf\">Virtually Honest?
