Plagiarism and academic dishonesty can lead to severe consequences. This online workshop will help you understand what plagiarism is and some of the most common mistakes that students make. We will also talk about Chat GPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Co-pilot and other AI tools, what they do and how to think through using them (or not). You will learn strategies and tools to cite sources, avoid plagiarism and about other resources to get additional support.

Rejection is hard! But everyone experiences it (and it's okay to cry!). This session will cover the peer review process—from receiving your first set of peer reviewer comments to becoming a peer reviewer yourself.  This workshop for graduate students, post-docs, researchers, instructors, new faculty, etc. will provide an overview of the publishing process. It is free and open to all disciplines.

Are you thinking about publishing a journal article? Have you heard about impact factors, h-indexes, or other metrics used to describe a researcher's work or a journals impact? Do you know what these numbers actually mean? This workshop will explain journal-level and author-level metrics and discuss what they can—and can't say—about the quality of research.

Get an introduction to how generative AI tools (e.g. Chat GPT, Google Gemini, Copilot, etc.) work, the pros and cons of using and tips for potentially incorporating them into your research and writing practice.
