Case: Cheating
Last week, I was giving a unit test. The day before the test, a male student of mine who sits in the back of the classroom wrote some answers on his desk. I found the written test answers at the end of the school day. I know it was this student because he is in my last class of the day in that seat and I know for sure it is his handwriting. While the student intended to cheat, he never was able to cheat on the test since I wiped off his desk. How would you handle this situation? Should intention to cheat be treated the same as actual cheating? Seems like a technicality but I would like some good professional opinions on how others would deal with this matter.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I wouldn't deduct points from this student because you already whipped the answers away. However, I would have a one on one talk with him and explain to him I found the answers and that it is not okay to cheat, ask him if he needs extra help and maybe give him a review sheet for the next test. Also tell him there will be consequences if he does cheat. |

Comments: I like this strategy because it doesn't single out the student in front of the whole class, but does convey the appropriate gravity of the situation to the individual student. |
