Consider working in a class with up to 40 teenagers- I don't think that "collaborative learning" will go over so well with them. Honestly, they don't care!
I know this is stereotypical, but I am one (a teenager), so I don't really care; MOST TEENAGERS DON'T CARE ABOUT SCHOOL. Many of the students in my class(es) just want to play around and make fun of the "nerds"- kids who actually work. Yep. That's the truth. They wouldn't take those new rules very well- just more to break! To heck with studying- why not cheat?
So... just thought you needed a teenager's perspective on things. For those of you middle/high school teachers out there- you know what I'm talking about! (I pity you)
What's the most effective way to prevent students from cheating?
