Students’ Cheating
Students’ cheating is one of the biggest problems faced by teachers nowadays.
Despite the fact that teachers advise their students not to do dishonest acts during tests, some
students still do cheating. There are many kinds of cheating that students do during the test or
examination, such as looking other students’ work, put some notes under their clothes, write notes
or formulas on their desks make hand signals or go to rest rooms to get the answers from their

This crime causes negative results to the students. Students who always cheat deteriorate their
mental capacity. Cheating acts also create dependence. They weaken their self confidence. Instead of
preparing for the coming test, they are busy to organize notes on a piece of paper. If this awful habit
continues, the students will lose their opportunity to develop their intellectual and mind.

administration should go hand to overcome this matter. Honesty must be put in school’s vision.
Harsh punishment must be applied to students who commit this crime.
