Case: The teacher quietly walks over to the student and removes the test
During a 5th grade social studies exam, a teacher thinks that a student is cheating by looking at another student's paper across the aisle. The teacher quietly walks over to the student and removes the test. She tears the exam in half and drops it in the waste basket. Upon hearing about this situation, the student's parents are angry and demand a response from the principal in regards they view as an improper use of power. What ethical and legal considerations should the principal contemplate when addressing this issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If the teacher had any suspicions then they should have talked to the student after class. Then grade the test and if the answers were similar then have each student involved retake the test at different times. Ripping up the test in front of the student, especially when you do not know the truth, is disrespectful and rude. |
