Course evaluation

It is the responsibility of the examiner to ensure that each course is evaluated. At the outset of the course, evaluators must be identified (elected) among the students. The course evaluation is carried out continuously as well as at the end of the course. On the completion of the course the course evaluators and course examiner discuss the course evaluation and possible improvements. A summary report is created and archived. The reports are followed up by program directors and discussed in program groups and with relevant others (depending on issue e.g. Associate Dean of Education, Associate Dean of faculty, Director of PhD Candidates, Dean and Director of Studies). The next time the course runs, students should be informed of any measures taken to improve the course based on the previous course evaluation

Academic integrity
JIBS students are expected to maintain a strong academic integrity. This implies to behave
within the boundaries of academic rules and expectations relating to all types of teaching and
examination.
Copying someone else’s work is a particularly serious offence and can lead to disciplinary action.
When you copy someone else’s work, you are plagiarizing. You must not copy sections of work
(such as paragraphs, diagrams, tables and words) from any other person, including another
student or any other author. Cutting and pasting is a clear example of plagiarism. There is a
workshop and online resources to assist you in not plagiarizing called the Interactive AntiPlagiarism
Guide.
Other forms of breaking academic integrity include (but are not limited to) adding your name to
a project you did not work on (or allowing someone to add their name), cheating on an
examination, helping other students to cheat and submitting other students work as your own,
and using non-allowed electronic equipment during an examination. All of these make you liable
to disciplinary action.
