Academic integrity has five tenants: honesty, trust, fairness, accountability, and respect

I, Pat Noecker, the author of this blog, will exercise appropriate and ethical attributary standards as determined by contemporary copyright law. The ethical standards of this practice will be determined and guided by the five tenets of Academic Integrity as set forth by the academic community at large and faculty at the State University of New York at Empire State College. I fully acknowledge and understand that these five tenants (Honesty, Trust, Fairness, Respect, Responsibility) of consideration are defined within this blog as such:

• Honesty. The quest for truth and knowledge within this blog will require intellectual and personal honesty in learning, teaching, research and service.

• Trust. I will foster a climate of mutual trust with my subjects in order to stimulate the free exchange of story and ideas.

• Fairness. All interactions among my subjects will be grounded in clear standards, practices and procedures.

• Respect. The activity within this blog is acknowledged as a participatory process, and a wide range of opinions and ideas will be offered beyond my own.

• Responsibility. The micro community within this blog is subject to personal accountability for their actions that can harm another’s reputation or safety.

Any content that I “upload” from another source other than myself will be given its due authorial credit. If a fee is required, the originator will be contacted and offered a nominal amount as determined by me and the author of the respective media.

Media, in this case, will be defined as such:

Data: Proprietary and personal information

Photographs: Any images or screenshots from a photographer other than myself

Works of two-dimensional art: Visual matter such as paintings or drawings

Written content: Any quoted writings from authors of poetry, prose, fiction, non-fiction, literature, reference materials, blogs, periodicals and other matter of written word

Music: Original works of composition driven by harmonic progressions

Sound: Orginal audible constructions of non harmonic composition

Video: Moving images created by a videographer, filmmaker or pedestrian

With all the above considered, I will also employ the below set of journalism ethics:

-Preserve my source’s personal information (data privacy) and if requested, personal identity.

-Refrain from character assassinations and maintain a distinct sense of neutrality that is based on the concept of “showing” instead of “telling,” unless a story requires my judgement. If so, the judgement will be procured based on an informed blend of public record and common opinion.

-I will employ spelling and sentence-competence based on an awareness of grammatical rules and general quality standards that resemble a professional-grade product

-None of the information I receive from my subjects will be sold in the name of data mining, notwithstanding the licensing of a digital story that I have created.

In such a case, all participants will be contacted and asked to sign a waiver that states their permission.
