Tommy & Chuckie were taking an ILA Assessment & decide to swap answers.
Hey Tommy! Wanna switch answers?!
Hey Tommy! Wanna switch answers?!
After Tommy & Chuckie finish using their 5 answers to answer each others last questions , they turn it in and the teacher grades them.

Once Tommy & Chuckie got their tests back both of them failed .
Would you consider this cheating? Why or why not?
I would consider this cheating because its a test and students are supposed to keep their answers to themselves. Plus why would anyone swap answers and use each other's answers to answer the last questions. They don't know if its right or not and we're supposed to choose our own answers that we think are correct.
Scenario Questions
Who is cheating in your scenario?
Both Tommy & Chuckie are cheating.
How did they cheat?
They were half-way finished with the tests and decided to switch answers and use each others answers to answer the rest of the questions. How were they supposed to know if each others answers were correct and they are not allowed to do that during a test.
How would you handle this situation if you were placed in this situation.? I would remind them not to cheat and to take these types of tests seriously because if they keep swapping answers on these major grade assessments their grades will really affect them in school. There is a quote that says if you cheat, you'll never get ahead. I would tell the teacher that she should give everyone privacy folders and keep an eye on mainly those two because it might not just be them who would cheat.
