Cheating
I enjoyed this segment regarding the above topic. I am firm believer that when you set the bar on day one of class, this is a topic that must be discussed. I encourage student to ask themselves one question regarding cheating. That question is "Who are you cheating". The answer is simply themselves. I also state the importance of as they are learning the concepts and skills they will need to apply them once out in their working careers. So basically, cheating does not help them get far at all.
Hi Oliveira,
Use the tactics mentioned to deter cheating.

I haven't caught anyone cheating yet, but when I correct my tests, I notice some learners get the same wrong answers as the person next to them. I guess I just don't have the teacher's eye.
Hi: In the very beginning of the class I talk to the students about integrity as being a part of their character that has and will always enhance their educational outcomes carrying them into their profession as an asset to their employer.
It is a great way to send a message to the entire class. Not only does it warn them of the repercussion issues that deal with but also the honesty and trust with the instructor must be restored.
I agree, the student is only hurting themself by cheating but it also sends a message to the entire class.
