Educators Find Students Use Online Sites to Share Methods of Cheating
10/1/2008

A September 30, 2008 Chicago Sun-Times article reports that educators are now dealing with a new aspect of cheating: students utilizing Web sites to share how they cheat. Colleges are trying various ways to combat cheating, including honor codes, student-run Honor Courts, and sanctions that sometimes result in student expulsion. While some attribute cheating to overall laziness, others believe that - in at least some cases - it may be prompted by the level of pressure that students feel to succeed.

The article is available at the Chicago Sun-Times Web site.
