  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!)
Some students are worried about the length of a test, and will glance over to see if their peer is further along than them. However, it is impossible to speculate on what is going on in another individuals head with any degree of accuracy. First, I would say to look at the test answers for similarity, and then if doubt remains have the student retake the test. The recommendations in this comment section are good for preventing this in the future.
