Student Perspectives on Behaviors That Constitute Cheating
Higbee, Jeanne L.; Schultz, Jennifer L.; Sanford, Thomas
Contemporary Issues in Education Research, v4 n10 p1-8 Oct 2011
A previous study conducted a decade ago determined that there can be considerable disagreement--not only between students and faculty, but also among students and among faculty--regarding behaviors that constitute cheating. This article reports the results of a research study that replicated the student survey administered for the previous study, but with changes in the questionnaire to reflect how technology has become infused in teaching and the assessment of learning. Recommendations for preventing academic dishonesty are also provided.
