9-18-18 Why Create an Integrity PSA
SEE invites Connecticut high school and college students to create a PSA in support of academic integrity.  SEE is administering our 6th annual Integrity PSA contest with the top three videos (as judged by professional videographers) to be recognized at our spring Character Celebration banquet.
 
SEE’s own research has revealed that up to 95% of high school students will self-report some form of cheating during a school year.  The rates tend to peak in the junior year as the pressure for college applications, class rank and GPAs is at its highest.

Our PSA contest is meant to be a creative way for students to voice their support for academic integrity and resist cheating in their school.  We seek to use the best media messages possible to develop student awareness of ethical issues.  Cheating in schools is one of those ethical issues and video messaging can be an effective means of communicating support for integrity.
 
You can find all the details about the contest and an online registration form on our project webpage at -- https://www.ethicsed.org/academic-integrity-psa-program.html
