As a parent of 2 young boys(5 and 7 years old), I find myself constantly amazed at how quickly the world has changed and how different the schooling has become as a result.

When I was at school cheating involved a calculator, thesaurus or dictionary along with writing on the back of your hand (not that I was ever gulity of this, or course)

With the radical change in technological apparatus available to our children, educational structures don't appear to be adjusting to keep up.

There is nothing to stop a child getting the answer to an algebraic problem from the web, but this is not teaching them how to use their brain to solve problems, or is it?

Hey that is a really clever post. When I read the headline I thought "yeah kidds should not cheat like that " but then when I read your spin on it I changed my mind. I think it is actually showing initiative and pulling on resources, which is actually clever. All great SEO's do just that everyday, they don't have all the answers but they know how to find people that do.

However blantant copying of other peoples work with no thought, I also disagree with, as that is lazy.

Thanks for making me think.

I am a little concerned that the parents of these students are seem to shrug off the fact that their children cheat. There are no degrees to cheating. "I only cheated a little…I'm not as bad as someone who cheats a lot". Cheating is dishonest and does the student no good in the long run. Making believe that some cheating once in a while is ok is doing a disservice to our children. Allowing a vehicle for students to cheat in the classroom is only providing a temptation for them to go ahead and cheat.

Cheating is part of growing up but I guess kids are prone on cheating because the technology is available to them, Long gone are the times when we used to write the answers on a small piece of paper and hide it in our wrist watch.

Thats the problem with kids today their enjoying the perks of technology and yet they learn nothing at all. We parents must be vigilant enough to teach our children with their studies not just leave them in front of the computer all the time.
