Case: The teacher quietly walks over to the student and removes the test
During a 5th grade social studies exam, a teacher thinks that a student is cheating by looking at another student's paper across the aisle. The teacher quietly walks over to the student and removes the test. She tears the exam in half and drops it in the waste basket. Upon hearing about this situation, the student's parents are angry and demand a response from the principal in regards they view as an improper use of power. What ethical and legal considerations should the principal contemplate when addressing this issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The teacher should have stood between the students as a warning, she shouldn't have torn up the test. |

Comments: I agree with this statement because the students shouldn't have had the test torn up. I believe they should have had a warning that showed them to not cheat. We need to make sure that our actions by ripping up the test can be very severe for a child and make them look even worse in front of the class. |
