No plans this weekend? Plan to spend some time on You Tube checking out the dozens of videos posted by students demonstrating innovative methods for cheating on tests. For example, there’s not a teacher alive who won’t closely examine a Coke bottle on a student’s desk after seeing this:
A similar video has been viewed over 2 million times. Enterprising cheaters show how to cheat with ballpoint pens, rubber bands, a hoodie, a three-ring binder, and a cough drop, among other common items. Hopefully, your students are as brilliant as this would-be cheater.
“I know it’s not a good thing to cheat,” explains Kiki in one video. “It’s, like, academic dishonesty and blah, blah, blah. But I think everyone has at least done it once.” She then demonstrates a low-tech way of inserting information inside the clear tube a ballpoint pen. “Hopefully, none of my teachers will see this video,” she adds.
Sorry, Kiki.
