Here are some of the most common methods that students sometimes try to cheat on quizzes:
1. Flashcards
Students sometimes prepare small sheets of paper with answers (flashcards) and try to hide them on their desk, in their pockets, shoes or other hard-to-reach places.
2. Writing on the palm or other parts of the body
Writing on their hand, arm or other parts of their body (e.g. legs) information that they want to hide to see later.
3. Remote downloading (e.g. over the phone)
Thanks to technology, students can try to download through mobile phones, smartwatches or other electronic devices that are not easy to see. They use various applications, scans of materials or photos to get answers.
4. Exchanging information with other students
Students can try to give each other prompts, especially when they are sitting close to each other. They can give each other answers on paper, whisper or make other gestures that make cheating easier.
5. Looking at your colleague's answers
This is one of the simplest methods – students try to peek at the answers of other people sitting next to them or in front of them.
6. Using codes or shortcuts
Sometimes students develop code systems that allow them to convey answers or information in a way that is not immediately noticeable.
7. Hidden learning aids
Students may try to hide small textbooks, notes or pieces of paper with important information that they can pull out while writing the quiz.
8. Handling materials (e.g. answer sheets)
Some students prepare scripts or notes in a way that allows them to quickly preview information. These can be specially designed cards or envelopes.
9. Using pens with hidden notes
In some cases, students prepare special pens that contain hidden notes or information in their case.
10. Change of Seats
Sometimes students try to change places during a test or quiz to get closer to a friend who has more knowledge or information.
However, the best way to pass the test is to reliably learn the material.
