Ah! the exams are just around the corner and there is so much of the
syllabus still left to cover. Story of every student’s life. Anxiety and
fear has often pushed us to cheat. We all have seen, heard or even
participated in some form of cheating. I had a friend who would put all
his time making chits (‘farrahs’- we would call it), before the exams,
instead of studying. His argument: most of the subjects are unimportant
and a waste of time.
Prevent Cheating on Exams
- Draw your students' attention to the sections of the Handbook on Student Rights and Responsibilities that concern academic offences.
- Explain to your students what cheating is.
- Use multiple versions of the exam.
- Use randomized assigned seating for midterms.
