Welcome to the October Education Bulletin, Student
Through these monthly emails, we'll round up news, views and resources on all things education policy and quality in one place - covering work underway to support great education and what's coming up.
Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on previous editions - please feel free to let us know if you have any feedback this month, we would love to hear your thoughts.
We have updated our mailing list to reflect role changes for the new academic year, although some changes may not have come through in time for us to finalise the list for this edition of the Education Bulletin.

Academic Integrity
Coming up in November is a week of events to showcase best practice, share resources, explore the role of academic integrity, promote student understanding and dialogue, and provide a forum to discuss academic integrity and to offer support and guidance.
Lee Griffin, Academic Lead for Academic Integrity at the University, explains when and how Artificial Intelligence can be used in assessments, and key considerations so you can ensure you are maintaining academic integrity.
Through the last academic year there has been exploration and enquiry on the impact of artificial intelligence on academic integrity, resulting in this guide. Find out more and read the guide here.
Find out more about some of the brilliant staff members from across Warwick who are helping to promote academic integrity across the University.
We would like your support with encouraging students to enter our competition on the theme of 'championing academic integrity in the age of Artificial Intelligence'. It's a great opportunity for students to show their creativity and have their work showcased during Academic Integrity Celebration Week (20-24 November).
The winnners and runners-up will be selected by Coventry University's Academic Manager for Student Experience, Irene Glendinning, and will win Amazon vouchers worth £100, £50 or £25 (x2).
Please encourage students to visit the Celebrating Academic Integrity website and enter the competition before 13 November.
