After giving an assessment on the Progressive Era, where he saw substantial student growth, a student stayed after class to tell him that their was a lot of cheating going on during the exam. Mr. Womack was very upset about this going on because he felt that he watching the students very closely. He wants to punish the class with a harder assessment since the cheating occurred. He has though about giving a free response test, but realizes he lack of time to make the new assessment and grade each written response. He is not sure where he should go from here. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) If the teacher was very careful at watching the students, he has to go by what he saw. I would definitely look into the situation, but sometimes students can be dramatic. If the teacher did not have his eyes on the student as well as he thinks, he needs to think of a different desk set up that would minimize cheating possibilities.
