Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP) and MAP-Postgrad

posted 03 March 2015 | Staff Announcement - (staff)

Available from March 12, all commencing coursework students are required to complete an online academic integrity module, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP) or MAP-Postgrad, as a condition of completing a degree at the university.

Students will be able to access the relevant module through My Units or through self-enrolment. Webpages with information about the modules are now available for both staff and students. Please use this information to promote the modules to students.

MAP and MAP-Postgrad are interactive online modules that provide new coursework students with a basic introduction to, or refresher course in, academic integrity and other requirements of good quality academic writing.

All commencing coursework students are required to complete one of these modules as a condition of completing their studies. Undergraduate or international postgraduate students are required to complete MAP, and domestic postgraduate coursework students are required to complete MAP-Postgrad.

Students will receive notifications about MAP and MAP-Postgrad, but are likely to need further reminders from academic staff. Please assist by promoting the relevant module to your students. The following websites are available for this purpose.

The MAP website for students  and MAP-Postgrad website for students provide basic information about the contents of each module, the groups of students required to complete the module and how students can access and complete the module.

The staff website provides further information about the background, design and implementation of MAP, directions for staff access and a PowerPoint presentation for use by course coordinators and tutors. Please use this information to promote the module to students.

Please note: MAP-Postgrad will be available for students to access on Thursday March 12. Any postgraduate students who have already completed MAP will not be required to complete MAP-Postgrad.
