Prevent Cheating

Students and faculty both have a role to play in preventing cheating. Faculty can create healthy ethical classrooms and reduce cheating temptations and opportunities. However, students are often aware of cheating when the professor isn’t (e.g., during out-of-class assignments) and see temptations and opportunities where the professor doesn’t, and therefore they have a role to play in preventing cheating as well.
