"This ambitious book pushes forward the conversation on academic integrity and writerly development. Crafting Ethical Scholarship synthesizes an impressive array of sources, ranging from histories to student handbooks and more. An enormous contribution."—Trish Serviss, Associate Professor, University Writing Program, University of California, Davis "By studying the writing processes of established scholars, the authors adeptly reveal what it means to become a crafter of new knowledge. This book suggests novel ways to guide students toward ethical writing. A welcome contribution."—Ronald T. Kellogg, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, Saint Louis University "Crafting Ethical Scholarship offers a compelling, research-grounded account of how academic writing, integrity, and knowledge making are deeply intertwined—an urgent task in the era of generative AI. Grounded in close analyses of expert writers' real-world practices, the book provides a nuanced pedagogical framework to help students transition into ethical scholars."—Montserrat Castelló, Professor of Educational Psychology, Universitat Ramon Llull A timely, evidence-based guide to reclaiming academic integrity and the mission of higher education.Today's academic integrity policies are punitive, ineffective, and entirely focused on student misconduct. Crafting Ethical Scholarship shifts the paradigm away from compliance by exploring how scholars develop authentic academic integrity through relationships within disciplinary communities. Doubling down on student misconduct won't solve today's AI-powered crisis of academic cheating. What college faculty and administrators need is an alternative to the current lose-lose strategy, one in which academic integrity is recognized as a road map to achieving higher education's highest goals.Crafting Ethical Scholarship recenters higher education as an inspiring place where expert thinkers create, explain, and build new knowledge. Coauthors Karyn E. Kessler, Paul J. Michiels, and Paul M. Rogers take readers inside the writing processes and life journeys of award-winning scholars across disciplines, showing how real academic integrity functions and contributes to the production of knowledge. The book offers a radical new model of academic integrity that relies on community and relationships to build diverse, equitable, and inclusive institutions.
