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!)
Talk to the student about what you found on his desk and honesty. The student will probably feel embarrassed that he will think twice next time he is tempted to cheat. |
