At the Chronicle of Higher Education, read James Lang’s three-part series on the themes of Cheating Lessons: (1) in many educational situations, students are incentivized to cheat; (2) it is vital to offer frequent, low-stakes opportunities to demonstrate learning (as a means of mitigating those incentives); and (3) the process of taking these frequent, low-stakes exams is, itself, a way to learn (not just a way to evaluate what has been learned). About this book. Cheating Lessons is a guide to tackling academic dishonesty at its roots. James Lang analyzes the features of course design and classroom practice that create cheating opportunities, and empowers teachers to build more effective learning environments. Instructors who curb academic dishonesty become better educators in other ways as well. In his new book, Cheating Lessons: Learning From Academic Dishonesty (Harvard University Press), Lang reviews research on both academic dishonesty and human learning to build a case that the most effective instructional strategies to minimize cheating are the same ones that will best help students to understand and retain the course material. When students are able to grasp the subject matter, Lang believes, they have little motivation to cheat.
