Academic Integrity and Disqualifications

AlgoEd enforces strict rules to ensure fair play. 

For Quiz Competitions

• Academic Integrity Confirmation: Before submitting your test, you will be required to confirm that all work is your own and was completed independently, without assistance from other resources including but not limited to other individuals, the internet, and artificial intelligence (AI) tools.
• Your camera must remain on for the entire test. The session will be recorded for integrity screening and deleted once the review is complete.
• Cheating Detection: Our system employs algorithms to monitor and detect any instances of cheating. 
• No Team Discussion During the Test: You are NOT allowed to communicate with your teammates during the test. The test must be completed independently, as you are competing not only for team awards but also for individual recognition.
• No Talking During the Test: Please refrain from any talking during the test. Even if unintentional, this may raise concerns about academic integrity and could be interpreted as a violation of test rules.
• Disqualification If Cheating Is Found: If you’re found to have engaged in cheating, you will be disqualified.

Confidentiality & Fair Play

• You are strictly prohibited from discussing test questions outside your team or sharing them on social media until the preliminary competition results are announced. Additionally, copying or capturing the questions in any form, including screenshots, violate the fair play principle. Any violation will result in disqualification.
