Artificial Intelligence and Academic Integrity

"This book brings together researchers and educators to explore the future of teaching and learning in the era of AI. Comprising seven sections, the volume includes philosophical reflections, historical analyses, empirical studies, and practical case-based insights. It also highlights the design and experimentation of AI technologies through proof-of-concept projects. Collectively, these contributions provide theoretical depth, strategic guidance, and evidence-informed approaches for navigating the benefits and risks of AI while upholding academic integrity in a rapidly changing educational landscape.
The book is aimed at a wide audience, including researchers, educators, instructional designers, policymakers, and higher education leaders who are addressing the ethical, pedagogical, and institutional challenges raised by AI. It is also valuable for postgraduate or graduate students and scholars in education, technology, and ethics, as well as for those supporting institutions in responding to emerging technologies in teaching and learning."

Nathalie Wierdak, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand
Nathalie’s work centres on advancing equity, wellbeing, and inclusive education through collaborative, values-driven initiatives. Drawing on a background in anthropology, learning development, and community engagement, she explores how strategic communication and inclusive pedagogical design can support historically underserved learners. Her current projects focus on the ethical use of generative AI in tertiary education, strengthening transitions into university, and enhancing staff capabilities in learner-centred teaching. Nathalie’s applied research also spans stakeholder engagement, intercultural communication, and
science outreach, with an emphasis on socially responsive, sustainable practices in Aotearoa and the wider Pacific.
Lynnaire Sheridan, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand
Lynnaire's research focus is on identifying key insights and potential learnings emerging from complex scenarios to facilitate problem solving and promote positive socio-cultural ecological and economic outcomes. She applies this lens within higher education through her teaching and learning research, with a focus on work-integrated learning, academic integrity, equity, and the use of artificial intelligence. Within her discipline, she explores organisational issues across diverse contexts, including workplace health and safety, tourism, healthcare, and global migration.
