This open resource presents over 140 real-world academic integrity and ethical dilemma scenarios co-created by students and staff. Designed for educators, trainers, and learners, it supports interactive discussions, gamified learning, and scenario-based teaching in ethics and integrity education across disciplines.

Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

The FAIR Game – Academic Integrity Scenarios resource provides educators with adaptable, ready-to-use materials to embed ethics and integrity training into their teaching. The scenarios can be used as case studies in lectures, tutorials, or workshops to prompt discussion and reflection on academic decision-making.

Educators can integrate the scenarios into gamified learning modules, quizzes, or digital storytelling platforms to encourage active learning. Academic developers may use them to co-create discipline-specific examples with students, while instructional designers can embed them into online learning environments or assessment tasks. The resource promotes critical thinking, ethical awareness, and student engagement while supporting flexible use across disciplines and teaching levels.
