Look out for the Cheater. He's gonna build you up just to let you down …Tough luck for the cheater. Too bad for the fool-hearted clown. (John Krenski)

The Cheater

3 minutes

Cheating in remote tests and other online work has become a topic of discussion in higher education recently. Here's an intro to the topic—and to this episode.

Promoting Academic Integrity in Our Course | Episode 25
An ed-tech specialist spoke out about remote testing software — and now he’s being sued | Faculty, staff, and students say they’ve had enough (online article) my-ap.us/3n1bOB6

Academic Integrity

16.5 minutes

One way to approach "the cheating issue" in our courses is to promote a culture of academic honesty from the start. But how do we do that? Kevin shares some practical tips you can use for a comprehensive approach to creating and maintaining a culture of professional and academic integrity in your A&P courses (or any courses, really).

- What the Best College Teachers Do (the Ken Bain book mentioned in this episode)
- The Syllabus Episode (mentioned several times in this podcast)
- Academic Integrity (A special topic page at The A&P Professor website; includes additional information and links to resources)
- Why be honest? (about academic integrity; for students)
- Kevin’s Academic Integrity statement (This is a statement I have used in my course syllabi. You are welcome to adapt it according to your own course and institution’s needs. It’s an example to get you thinking about actively promoting honesty.)
- Kevin’ Academic Integrity Case Study handout/activity (This document is an example of an in-class activity that I use to promote discussion of academic integrity. It’s a handout used for small group discussions. You can adapt it to fit your needs, per the attribution/share-alike license enclosed in the document.)
- Frank O'Neill @growgraymatter (Turn on your "Frank O'Neill filter.")

Consequences

10.5 minutes

Even though we should empathize with students in how we handle cheating, compassion dictates that we also hold them accountable.

Using Media in Our A&P Course – Advice From Barbara Waxer | Episode 28
Using copyrightable materials in teaching (Some good practical advice from the University of Minnesota Libraries. But ask your own librarians for help. And don't forget, I've got an upcoming episode with an expert!)
Testing as Teaching (this seminar at The A&P Professor website shows you how I use Respondus test editor, one of many available test editors that can also easily produce multiple versions of a test)
Caring for Students Helps Them Succeed (the episode where I focused on "that empathy thing")
Cheating in College: Why Students Do It and What Educators Can Do about It (a book you might find to be helpful)

Remote Cheating

9.5 minutes

In the era of pandemic teaching and post-pandemic teaching, how can we best prevent cheating? Kevin has some ideas. And they're not new.

Advanced Anti-Cheating

8 minutes

Perhaps we can use the effective security strategy of misdirection as we try to manage cheating in our course.. And also look at student work inside and out for signs of academic dishonesty, including Rogeting.
