- Title
What Can We Do About STUDENT CHEATING?
- Authors
Cole, Sally; Kiss, Elizabeth
- Abstract
The article focuses on the increase in number of cheating cases among students in the U.S. A 1998 survey of 3,123 college-bound seniors by 'Who's Who Among High School Students,' found that 80 percent admitted to having cheated, 83 percent said cheating was common at their school, and 53 percent did not believe that cheating was a serious ethical violation. The author describes two approaches to changing cheating cultures. Attempts to make cheating difficult include vigilant proctoring, seating students far apart during examinations, using multiple versions of tests, requiring that book bags be left outside examination rooms, and checking student photo identity cards.
