Related Issues

  1. Collaboration. "Real world" jobs require people to work together. Shouldn't students start "collaborating" in school? How or when does collaboration become "cheating"?
  2. Knowledge and skills assessment. Which methods of assessment discourage cheating? Are exams, term papers effective in the assessment of students' knowledge?
  3. Intellectual dishonesty and licenses (copyright, Creative Commons, open source). Certain licenses encourage "copying" but certainly not cheating.
  4. courses of action at various levels to address plagiarism and intellectual dishonesty: department, college, university, court
