The Classroom Tips and Advice |
|
1. Watch for
roaming eyes. |
|
2. Most
students will look
at you before they
cheat. They are
checking to see if
you are watching. |
|
3. Turn the
test face down when
you pass them out
and make sure that
all the students
start at the same
time. If you don't
follow this
procedure they will
be tempted to share
information while
you are distracted. |
|
4. Have the
desk clear of all
objects except for
the test and a pen
or pencil. |
|
5. Check the
desk after each
test. Some students
have been known to
leave answers
written on the desk
for the next class. |
|
6. Watch out
for calculators on
desks. Many
calculators have
memory banks in
which answers can be
stored. I once
caught a student
using a calculator
for a Geography
test. He had the
states and the
capitals in the
memory. |
|
7. Be aware
of students who look
in their laps during
a test. Great place
for cheat sheets and
answers. |
|
8. Be aware
of students who look
at their hands
during a test. They
will often write the
answers on their
palms and arms. |
|
9. Never
allow students to
talk during a test.
|
|
10. Watch for
a pattern of grades
from one class to
another. If one of
your classes has a
pattern of high
grades than the rest
of your classes,
there is a good
chance that answers
are being exchanged
during lunch, a
break or another
class. |
|
11. Keep
desks apart to avoid temptation. |
|
12. Never
leave your answer keys on your desk.
Students can quickly pick them up or
memorize the answers. |
|
13. Don't
give the same test to every class.
Scramble the questions from one class to
the next. |
|
14. Don't
allow Blackberries, recorders, cell
phones or any other electronic device.
There is an epidemic in text messaging
and image transmission of answers,
questions and whole test pages. |
|
15. Keep the
students in the class during the test.
Often students will hide answers and
review them in the bathroom or hall. |
|
16. Don't
leave the room during the test for any
reason. This is an open invitation for
the sharing of answers. |
|
17. Don't
have a substitute give a
test. Most subs are not
trained or certified.
They don't have the
knowledge required to
answer student
questions. The students
will feel that the test
is not important, since
you are not there to
administer it. |
|
18. In
homework assignments and
essay tests check for
plagiarism
and stolen work.
Students will often copy
others work or cut and
past information from
the internet. If what
they are writing does
not match their level,
handwriting, or if you
feel you have read it
before, rest assured
that it is not their
work. |
|
19. Make the
punishment for cheating
severe enough so the
students will not be
tempted to try it again. |
|
20. With the
advent of AI don't
hesitate to give an oral
review if you required a
research of term paper.
|
Cheating: the practice of using
another's materials and claiming it as your own.
Cheating should never be allowed or encouraged by the
teacher or the other students. It is dishonest and will
only dilute your efforts in the classroom. If you find
that it is occurring make sure the students understand
how this activity is unacceptable to you and the other
students.
