Unit 2:
Questions:
1. In your opinion or experience, why do some students chose to cheat? What are some of the different reasons students give? Do you know people who cheated in high school or college? (you can respond generally. I am not looking for names).
Answer:
In my opinion many classmates ever do cheat. They said they fear failed in examinations or their parents maybe reprove them not do well on exam. I think the teacher demand students strict very much so they have to chose to cheat for achieving teacher’s stander or to win the awards for helping parents’ economy ,ect.
2. In the US if you were caught plagiarizing assignments you would immediately be given a failing grade. You could also be immediately expelled from the university for “academic dishonesty”. Since the reason you were expelled would be written on your transcripts, every other university you applied to would know you once got caught cheating. What types of punishment are generally given for cheating on exams or class work in Taiwan? Do you think these punishments are a sufficient deterrent to cheating? What do you think the punishment should be?
Answer:
I think plagiarize behavior is wrong. If one always plagiarize classmates answer, I think one didn’t learn anything and not do well in the future. In the Taiwan if you were caught plagiarizing assignment you also would immediately be given a failing grade. And maybe you will be given a warn for you ever do wrong thing. In my opinion I think punishments should different for the same do cheat person. For example, introvert student do cheat maybe teacher should do a small extent not to punishment for standing up on the passageway. If the student were do cheat by intention I think teacher should be given strict punishment for their do cheat again. Don’t should be punishment by hurt student‘s self-respect. I think the best way to try patiently to talk students not do wrong behaviors. And share each other’s views to let they understand correct things.
3. You will have to think creatively for your answer here: Even with the threat of severe punishment, the readings above indicate that cheating is still a problem. One reason is because students naturally assume they will get away with it and won’t get caught. Therefore, severe consequences probably won’t be enough, by themselves, to stop students from cheating (if you don’t think you will get caught, it’s easy to ignore the possible consequences). What can be done? What real solutions should be tried? Are teachers and students in perpetual race to see who can get trickier? What other solutions can be tried to stop cheating? Be specific with your suggestions.
Answer:
No matter how students’ score high or low they will try do cheat in school because person always want to do best in the class. To avoid cheating behavior will difficult. Maybe the teacher can choose test different questions, for example, the teacher can prepare for two different examinations and then odd number students do blue exam; even number students do red exam. If I were a teacher, I will choose to test essays or to disorganize the questions order and answer order.
(If this question is hard, here are some possible solutions to think about: reward students who catch their classmates with extra credit; expel students from school, forever, for the first time; hire detectives or student helpers to look for cheaters; do nothing at all; other creative solutions)

Good advice for tests-- I always make multiple test types. But what about for essay writing? Multiple question types won't necessarily work for those. Any suggestions?
If the test is essay,you won't necessarily to do multiple question. Because the essay answer is multiple that isn't the same. If I were a teacher,I can tell student ten essay questions and the mid-exam will test two or three questions. Maybe student won't cheat~because their know how to prepare.
