4th Asia Pacific Conference on Educational Integrity (4APCEI) Student Video Competition
DUE DATE EXTENSION: due to some delays following the strike this week, the final date for submission of student videos has been moved from the 22nd to the 25th of September.
Can you come up with a creative, unique or humorous idea that will engage students with issues relating to educational integrity? It could be a documentary, musical, action film, horror movie, drama, reality show, comedy or adventure. You could end up winning an award for ‘plagiarism’. Imagine how that will look on your cv!

Schedule:
Submissions are open from August 31st 2009, with final date for entries the 22nd September. The finalist videos will be posted online on the 4APCEI website and the winners announced at the 4APCEI conference dinner 29th September 2009.
