  Case: Copying
For the most part, I am extremely impressed with my students this year. They are generally well-behaved and bright. Unfortunately, it is obvious that several of them are pooling their answers on the homework assignments, or worse, copying off the same paper. Any advice?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would explain that copying each other's work is considered cheating and a lazy way to have the assignments completed. You can stress to the students that you expect them to do their own work unless it is assigned as group work. The students need to know that even though that it is group work, it needs to be their own work and not copied from another person. If you see that the students are still copying, give consequences and have the students do the work on their own in class or in detention.
