More Students Cheating

         When 'Studies Find More Students Cheating, With High Achivers No Exceptions" NYTimes Richard Perez-Pena examines what the real situation is about when it comes to more students cheating. Most cheating has increased in the most competitive schools. Some are high schools and even college. It is proven that most of the high achievers are the ones who are doing the most cheating. Experts say the reason are simple, cheating has become easier and more widely tolerated and maybe because parents don't tell thier children right from wrong. Donald L. McCabe a professer at the Rutgers University Buisness School ,and a leading researcher on cheating says " I don't think there's any questions that students have become more competive,under more pressure,and,as a result ,tend to excuse more from themselves and other students, and that's allowed by the adults around them.

     "There always have been struggling student cheating to survive,' he said. But more abd more,there are students at the top who cheat to survive. Another way it is easy for students cheat is technology. Internet access has made cheating a lot more easier. Due to cell phones , IPods , Or the old fashioned way the computer. Where people plagiarized for doing research, writing reports, or even essay.

       Some professers think that take home test should be the last thing that students do at home. If they are already cheating why should they be allowed to have a take home test were the can thier computers or smartphones to cheat. My honest opinion is I think maybe parents should be paying more attention to what high schoolers do when they get home such as checking for homework, asking about test. If the student do have test then the parent should study with them to make sure they do do thier work. For college students I think thier should be more professer in the classrooms most likely for exams.
