  Case: The side look
I administer a test and I notice many of the kids occasionally giving a side glance to scan another child's test quickly. I am a little worried about disciplining a child, however, because, although I am almost sure that these glances are with intent I cannot legitimately prove it and would have to rely on the child's word. Any suggestions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
During tests students should be moved to testing seat arrangements. They should be spread out, so no one is directly next to anyone. I like using cardboard trifolds to create a boundary they cannot see around. Also, when they have the trifold up it is a lot easier to monitor who is looking past the board to another student's paper. Hope this helps!

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would most definitely do this as well. This is one of the best options to prevent cheating and create fairness.

Comments: This is exactly what I would do. Dividers give kids the feeling of having their own little safe space to do their own work.
