Fraud

Fraud is cheating during an examination, free-riding on the work of others during group assignments, using someone else’s ideas or texts without acknowledging the source (plagiarism) or using falsified data in research, including user research. A teacher who suspects a student of fraud must always report this to the Board of Examiners.
