Spring 2026 Reading Group

We're excited to partner with Emma Thompson from the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities for this semester's reading group selection! Also, we'll be reading in a non-linear order this semester, so that's a fun switch 😆

Title: The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI

by Tricia Bertram Gallant and David A. Rettinger

Description:

In these days of an ever-expanding internet, generative AI, and term paper mills, students may find it too easy and tempting to cheat, and teachers may think they can’t keep up. What’s needed, and what Tricia Bertram Gallant and David A. Rettinger offer in this timely book, is a new approach—one that works with the realities of the twenty-first century, not just to protect academic integrity but also to maximize opportunities for students to learn.

The Opposite of Cheating presents a positive, forward-looking, research-backed vision for what classroom integrity can look like in the GenAI era, both in cyberspace and on campus. Accordingly, the book outlines workable measures teachers can use to better understand why students cheat and to prevent cheating while aiming to enhance learning and integrity.
