Author Biography: Tyra Twomey

Book Synopsis

Pedagogy, not Policing is born out of a shared belief in the twin values of quality teaching and community effort. Bringing together the voices of graduate and undergraduate students, teaching assistants, faculty, and other members of university communities, it asks and addresses such questions as what academic integrity (AI) is, what roles it plays in our colleges and universities, whom it serves, and what practices nourish or jeopardize it. The contributors challenge what we think we know about AI while offering pragmatic, concrete tools for how to promote it in the classroom.
