Abstract

While educational development exists for educators with regards to academic integrity, it is often couched in terms of preventing violations of integrity (Serviss, 2016). A phenomenon that is addressed less often is how and why faculty members must assess with integrity, or resist the worldwide trend (Baker, 2018) towards grade inflation. In this session, we explore various aspects of grade inflation, drawing comparisons between Canada and the UK.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
