Article 2:
Preventive Practices
2.01 Preventive Measures.
Instructors can help students comply with the academic honesty policy by minimizing temptation to act dishonestly. Measures instructors should consider are:
- Maintaining adequate security precautions in the preparation and handling of tests;
- Structuring the type and sequence of examination questions so as to discourage dishonesty;
- Providing ample room for proper spacing of students during examinations, if room is available; and
- Monitoring examinations, especially in large classes and in classes where not all students are known to the instructor or the assistant;
- Making clear to their students, in writing, what constitutes academic dishonesty, particularly in those classes where group activities (laboratory exercises, generation of field reports, etc.) are part of the instructional process;
- Requiring students to show a picture ID and sign major assignments and exams;
- Helping raise consciousness of the issue of academic honesty by asking students to sign an honor pledge in the first week of class and to write a short pledge in their own hand on their major assignments.
