Based on data from prof. Donald McCabe, currently about 70% of high school students cheat on the exam and about 60% of plagiarism students write (2018, Wikipedia). Cheating has some negative effects, such as decreased student learning motivation, lazy thinking, not confident with their own opinions, etc.
Here are some ways school / teacher can do, so that students do not have the opportunity / willingness to cheat:
- Tighten the supervising of the test / put CCTV in the classroom.
- Make a long distance between the tables during the exam.
- Differentiate the type of question based on students capacity.
- Make the grading system clearly to avoid cheating, like reducing the scores.
- Giving no scores for the cheaters.
- Inform the bad impact of cheating for their future, like it will lead to corruption behavior.
- Punishing the cheaters.
- Limit the time for each question on the test.
