Detecting Cheating
<http://muweb.millersv.edu/~jccomp/acadintegrity/detectingcheating.html>

"The best way to detect cheating is to observe students during the
examination- not by being preoccupied at one's desk" (Mehrens & Lehmann,
1991).

"Cheating has been rampant in almost every school.  It has grown more
frequently than what it usually has been.   Students have found many ways
to perfect cheating so it is not easily detectable.

    Technology has helped many of students cheat on their school tests.
Small gadgets are available to store notes and make cheating easy for
them. Teachers are actually fooled by these students because they do not
know when cheating is happening.  Students have calculators, which are
legal in school but are also able to store information that no one can
detect it.  Palm pilots organizers  can hold and store lots of memory for
a student that could be vital information for a test.  Text messaging on
cellular phones and pagers.  Text messaging makes it easier for students
to silently talk to each other during a test, asking each other questions
right in front of the teacher.  Vibrating and no sound modes make all this
possible."
