Grades tend to be more hurtful than anything. They have negative effects on students and how they learn. Cheating can become a series problem even with students who normally wouldn’t cheat. “Researchers have found that the more students are
The down side of this is that learners may have only been taught what is needed to pass the exam and not retain any of the other theories they may need at a later stage.
Students who feel that they will not do well on the test lose interest in school and begin to become frustrated ,students can experience anxiety and children with learning disabilities are treated
Stephen L. Carter links integrity and honesty. There are three constraints discussed in this essay. First, integrity does require a degree of moral reflectiveness. Second, Integrity may cause conflict that is must be resolved. It does not necessarily produce or protect interpersonal harmony. Third, a person who has integrity can be trusted. It does not avoid the restructuring of social structures and associations, because it leaves the matter to exercise of interpersonal authority.
The student becomes a sort of “accessory,” or “accomplice of crime”. That notion is not a solution to solving the problem of cheating, instead, it instills guilt, and consequently stress, into students who could have seen something they may not have wanted to see. Students should not be the police; it is not their responsibility. Although, it is there responsibility to discourage cheating. If a student wants to inform a superior about cheating, that should be the student’s choice, and should be based the student’s own conviction, not because they do not want to be
Either the students cheat themselves or they are trying to cheat their professors. Some Rabbis even claim that it’s a big Issur of Gneivat Daat, but I disagree and think that the focus shouldn’t be on the Halacha perspective about cheating, but about the morals that as a school who represent the Jewish world. If we show the world of ethical and honest we are, not just we make the other religions loves us, but also we are going to make a big Kiddush Hashem. And I am a fervent believer that with this attitude of positivity, we will make a big change in and out of the university
Lack of comprehension and poor course work will result in a lower grade average. Students may become frustrated and give up easily.
never disclose their grades, maybe become seriously anxious or depressed, and you have to take
Integrity and honesty are often thought to coincide: many people believe that is true. Author Stephen L. Carter wrote “The Insufficiency of Honesty”, which was published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1996. He argues that a person can have honesty without ever reflecting back on whether or not what they believe is necessarily true, which is not exactly integrity. Carter builds his credibility in his writing by stating that he was giving a university commencement address, citing statistics and using prominent sources. He also gives well thought out examples to help strengthen his argument that one can be honest without having integrity.
On page 52 in Lussier, “cheating on homework, assignments, and exams and turning in papers written by someone else” are the first three unethical behaviors of college students referred to in Self-Assessment 6. Students who participate in such unethical behaviors both benefit and are harmed. For example, if a student cheats on an exam by copying off of another student’s exam and passes, the student benefits from the passing grade however, he/she undermines the quality of the exam and the effort put in by the other test taker. Students harm themselves by taking the risk of getting caught and suffering the consequences that follow. Most of the time, your morals, and values both align with whether or not you decide to act in an unethical manner
Many researchers have indicated that cheating is a serious problem on campuses (Bowers, 1964; Engler et al., 2008; Gallant, 2008; Leming, 1978; McCabe, Trevino, & Butterfield, 2001). Studies completed by Bowers (1964) and McCabe and Trevino (1996) revealed nearly identical results regarding student-cheating behavior despite the 30 year time span; both studies identified that
Since we're talking about my thoughts, let's start with the impact your cheating has on me. Turning in someone else's work as if it is your own is a form of lying. To me, at least, when someone lies to me, it says, "You're either too stupid to recognize that I'm lying to you, or you're powerless to do anything about it even if you do know that I'm lying. Either way, I don't respect you." In my position as a professor, the "powerlessness" option translates into "too gutless or lazy to do anything about my lie." So, from my point of view, when a student lies to me, he or she is in effect saying that I'm stupid, gutless, and/or lazy.
A utilitarian would probably agree with cheating. Utilitarianism believes that morals are based on the happiness or misery of people. If a person cheated and got an A on the test, they would obviously be happy. Utilitarians also have the tendency to look at the short-term affects of a situation. For example, cheating would result in an A, however the broad perspective is that nothing would be learned, or if they were to get caught cheating they would fail, therefore in actuality they are not benefiting at all.
Second, people cheat on tests in school. They may not realize at the time that by doing this, they are cheating themselves out of their own education. Is the passing grade what is really important, or is it the knowledge they have deprived themselves of? Cheating does not increase their knowledge or make them a better person. What they don't realize is that once they enter their career they won't have the knowledge they need to do their work successfully.
When asking a student do they think cheating is bad most will say yes and will even admit to cheating.Cheating doesn’t affect many students on a regular day basis until they have been caught red-handed.When it comes to cheating blame automatically goes to the student but what about the adult as well.Some teachers have admitted to seeing student cheat but haven't said anything because it was on homework.Some teachers have even gone to the depth of helping a student cheat on a test.There was a survey that was taken through all of the high schools asking students if they had ever cheated on a test, the results were that there were 64 percent who cheated,58 who plagiarised, and above all 95 percent of them admitted to cheating of some sort.(Academic Integrity Under Statistics paragraph 3 )Students cheat to make it through a semester and to make their parents proud.Students cheat simply because of lack of knowledge, pressure from the adult looking for them to do their best, and last lack of time.
