Interactive online learning

The emergence of mobile learning technologies and flexible delivery of information was the basis for developing three online tutorials. The Academic Integrity tutorial addresses key aspects of why referencing is important, the meaning of collusion and the consequences of academic misconduct. The Referencing tutorial demonstrates the specifics of referencing using the Harvard and Chicago styles and the Graphic Presentation tutorial incorporates information on the nature of graphics and how they should be used in academic writing. The seamless design of the tutorials incorporates linear navigation, meaningful contexts, learning by doing and a thorough testing of concepts. The tutorials have improved students’ understanding of academic integrity, how to reference correctly, and present graphical information effectively
