As part of ongoing efforts to support the PKUHSC master’s students academically, the China Initiative OTD residents led a 2nd workshop discussing the importance of academic integrity and the use of APA formatting/citations in academic papers and presentations. This topic was selected in response to needs expressed by the PKUHSC students following the 1st Academic Workshop last September. Students participated in a pre-workshop quiz to assess their knowledge, and to address common misconceptions/mistakes related to academic integrity. They also had the opportunity to directly practice using APA citations and obtain feedback. Learning to uphold academic integrity and to protect the intellectual property of others is a core component of professional ethics, and will prepare the PKUHSC students for success throughout their program and as future OT professionals.
