The article includes quotes from
professors and experts. Donlad M. McCabe says, "there have always been
struggling students who cheat to survive...but more and more, there are students
at the top who cheat to succeed. This quote depicts that its not only the
under-achievers cheating to get ahead, its also the high achievevers who cheat
to be successful.
I think cheating is kind of a way a lot of teens get through high school. Because a lot of teens wait until someone they know is smart to do their work.. I don’t think it’s fair because teens that work hard to do their work, take their time. And the teens that cheat off of them find it easier. It’s like a bad habit, they think, if I can cheat, I don’t have to do my work.”
This article has me thinking that teachers do not take their time off knowing who cheats or who don't cheat. I don't think that its fair to those ones that work hard and actually earn the right grade for what they have wich is an A and the one's that cheat get the same grade as well. Well as for me I just think that the students that cheat need to pay me more attention in class or stay after school for more help in the class or lesson they don't understands.
This article has me left with some questions. Such as how many times a day do teens cheat? Do the teens that cheat get cought? Have the teens that actually worked for the grade gets noticed? Is there more teens cheating cheating now? Whats the highest percentage of teens cheating.
Good post. Do you feel, like some in the article argue, that parents and schools are just as much to blame for the cheating because of the pressure they put on teens? 95
