  Case: Inappropriate Study Guide
A fifth grade teacher was about to give a unit math assessment. He simply took the actual test and removed the multiple choice answers and gave it to his students to use as a study guide. The next day he gave the same assessment with the multiple choice answers included to the students to complete as their graded unit assessment. Do you believe this is an ethical practice?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It is ethical. it isn't exactly an effective teaching method, but it isn't unethical. If that is how he wants to run his classroom, I think in the world we live in today, we have such access to technology, it fits.
