Teach students how not to cheat

by ROBERT VANDERBURG and ANTHONY WEBER

Academic integrity has been a sector wide issue for many decades. However, it has only been since the early 2000s that academics such as Tracey Bretag began driving a focus on reducing academic integrity breaches in higher education. In more recent times, as COVID-19 saw a mainstreaming of on-line assessments, the scourge of commercial contract cheating became a particularly significant issue for academic integrity.

Are Standardized Tests Racist, or Are They Anti-racist?

Are Standardized Tests Racist, or Are They Anti-racist? | Rubrics, Assessment and eProctoring in Education | Scoop.it
In the United States, we have a primary and secondary education system that is unequal because of historic and contemporary laws and policies. American schools continue to be highly segregated by race, ethnicity, and social class, and that segregation affects what students have the opportunity to learn. Well-resourced schools can afford to provide more enriching educational experiences to their students than underfunded schools can. When students take standardized tests, they answer questions based on what they’ve learned, but what they’ve learned depends on the kind of schools they were lucky (or unlucky) enough to attend.
