Yes, you can submit an Incident Report of Academic Dishonesty (IROAD) for any gradable assignment, including draft assignments. However, we ask that instructors take caution in submitting IROADs for draft submissions. Students often perceive draft assignments as opportunities to receive feedback before submitting a final submission, so faculty should consider providing extensive feedback and guidance regarding academic dishonesty. You should only consider submitting an IROAD for the draft submissions if the actions in the draft submission are egregious or if the student continues a pattern of repeated plagiarism in the course despite your previous interventions.
