Do Purdue Professors do enough to prevent cheating?
You all heard that 10 students were recently caught cheating in a 200 level engineering course. Is cheating a widespread problem at Purdue? Do you think that Professors are doing everything they can to prevent cheating?
- I think professors do a fair amount to prevent cheating. They implement several mainstream options, like giving different forms of exams. Although they give a basic cheating policy, not all professors give more concrete expectations for how much "working together" you can do on homework. In some classes, it's unclear how much help you're allowed to get from other people in the class. (This may be different for different classes.) However, I think regardless of what safeguards you put in, someone will always find a way around them. I'm sure professors know of many creative ways people have cheated. --Norlow 12:18, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
