A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
At the new program at Fieldstone, students watch this video to help spark discussions over academic dishonesty. A similar video for educators could help curb the spate of teacher cheating scandals that have spread across the U.S, involving traditional public schools, like those in Atlanta orHarlem, and charters schools alike.
Universities are also not immune. 11 educators from Fordham University in New York were found guilty of inflating student exams grades. "With educators' livelihood and reputations at stake, the pressure to raise test scores from students who were already under great stress became overwhelming,” Fordham University's Mark Naison noted at the time. “It is understandable to see how some educators, in this immoral and untenable position, chose to manipulate test scores rather than put their students under even greater stress.”
