For Spring 2021, all undergraduate and graduate courses will have access to CircleIn. The CircleIn platform creates a virtual learning community for students to support one another in their coursework, all while having a chance to earn rewards and prizes. This peer-to-peer learning model is backed by the National Science Foundation (NSF), who in partnership with CircleIn, has invited Fairleigh Dickinson University to participate in a pilot study to measure the impact of this innovative platform on student success.

Is it cheating if students help each other with their homework?

All homework that you submit for your classes should be your own work. However, it is okay to discuss assignments with classmates, develop strategies for completing them, prep one another for tests, and so on. If you are unclear about what constitutes cheating (i.e., academic dishonesty) please refer to FDU’s academic integrity policy and discuss it with your professor or academic advisor.
