Cheating Part II: Addressing Cheating in the Classroom

Review practical ways to respond to cheating in the classroom.

 

The pressure to succeed academically has never been higher. And with the deterioration of students’ ethics and new and clever technologies cheating never seemed so wide-spread. Cheating Part II: Addressing Cheating in the Classroom will share strategies for preventing and responding to cheating so that teachers can focus on what they do best – teach students.

Co-presenters Karen O. Clifford and Tricia Bertram Gallant will have a dialogue on the four main areas that educators can make immediate and impactful changes. They are:

  • The learning environment
  • Perceptions and beliefs that “everyone is doing it”
  • Educating students about what constitutes cheating
  • Implementing consequences that leverage the cheating moment for learning.

Cheating Part II: Addressing Cheating in the Classroom will be helpful to both administrators and teachers that are experiencing challenges in preventing, addressing and reducing cheating. You will review practical suggestions at the classroom level-strategies individual teachers can implement without a school-wide academic integrity initiative and how teachers might respond to resistant administrators. Administrators will gain an understanding of effective classroom practices they should support and how they might respond to resistant parents.
