Academic Integrity Module (AIM)
What is it?
AIM is a compulsory online module that introduces you to La Trobe's values and academic integrity standards. It helps you understand how to avoid plagiarism and other academic misconduct.
Within this module, there are five parts designed to help your understanding and ability to demonstrate academic integrity in your work. You will also be provided with an insight into the potential consequences of academic misconduct and how academic integrity decisions are made. The module includes five quizzes that you must pass in order to complete AIM: four standard quizzes and one final 'End of AIM' quiz.
Why it matters
AIM is a compulsory part of your course and you must complete it during your first study period. If you don’t complete AIM, you won’t be able to see your subject results or get an academic transcript. If you don't complete AIM by the end of your course, you won't be able to complete your course or graduate.
How to enrol in and complete AIM
AIM should already show in your study plan. You can enrol in and complete it like any other subject:
- Log in to StudentOnLine and enrol in the AIM subject (LTU0AIM). Select the current year and relevant teaching period.
- Wait 24 hours, then log in to the Learning Management System (LMS) to access the online module.
- Complete all five quizzes with a score of 80% or higher. You can retake these as many times as needed until you pass.
- Once you pass, you'll receive an AIM badge in the LMS.
How to check if you've completed AIM
To see if you've completed AIM already, you can log in to StudentOnLine and check your Academic Record. If AIM shows a P (Pass) grade, this means you've completed it. If AIM shows NRA (No Result Available), it probably means you didn’t complete the module within the teaching period you were enrolled in and need to enrol in the next teaching period.
