CONTEST ALERT; Examination Malpractice
Hello, my friends; how are you all doing? I will be dropping my entry in this contest titled Examination Malpractice, and I want to thank the organizer @nsijoro for this amazing contest.
Enjoy reading my post
Examination can be defined as the test that the teachers always give the students at the end of every semester to test if they learned what they teach them.
What do you understand by examination malpractice?
Examination Malpractice can be defined, in my understanding, as the act or behavior that students always do in the examination hall to gain an unmerited score.
People who engage more in examination Malpractice are students who do not take their studies seriously.
You will see a student who will never attend class for one day due to laziness, and during the examination period, the person will look for a way to pass that particular course.
Do you believe examination practice come with consequences? list them
Every bad act comes with a consequence, so as examination Malpractice.
These are some of the consequences of examination Malpractice.
- Damage of reputation: when you are caught in examination Malpractice, it will damage your reputation because it gives you a bad name.
Anyone caught doing malpractice in school is killing his or her career because no one will trust such kind of person again.
Imagine if you have the opportunity to become the president of a given institution or be the head of a department; no one will ever trust you because they will believe that you will always cheat in everything.
So malpractice will ruin your reputation so much.
- It will make you unserious with your studies: whenever you take malpractice as your priority, it will make you very lazy in your studies because you always hope on your examination Malpractice, so people that involve themselves in malpractice can never be serious with their lives and studies.
Have you ever engaged in this practice, or do you know someone (a student) who engaged in this?
I have never engaged myself in examination Malpractice, but I know a student who has engaged in it before.
In my 100l in the university, we were writing one course that very students find very difficult.
The course is Phy 104, so because of what my senior colleague always says about the course, I try my best to study my book very well.
The day of the examination came, and I was ready to face the course no matter how difficult the course was.
When I saw the question pepper, I just smiled because everything that I read was the same thing I saw in the question pepper.
I started answering my questions because it was not as hard as I thought.
One guy was staying very close to me, and he didn't know what to write; when the invigilator went out to get something in his car, he brought out his phone and started writing, but to his surprise, the invigilator was standing at his back without his notice.
The man collected his phone and his answer booklet.
After that, he was given a one-year suspension from the school.
And this made him not to be in the same level with us again.
List different ways people cheat in exams and the cause of this.
Some of the ways in which people cheat in exams include the following.
Sharing answer booklet: some students always share their answer scripts with their friends in the examination hall.
Students using their phones to get answers online
And some students always ask the lecturer to help them pass after writing the exam.
Causes why students cheat in exams.
Fear of failing your examination: some students always engage themselves in examination Malpractice because they don't want to fail.
Bad friends: sometimes your friend might be the reason you start doing malpractice because he or she always advises you not to read because he believes that malpractice will make you pass.
So bad friends are also the causes of examination Malpractice.
What are ways to curtail the increase in examination practice?
There are many ways we can use to stop malpractice.
1: Teaching the students very well: when the teachers teach the students very well, like teach them till they understand that particular course very well, I don't think that they will be malpractice again.
Because they already know what to write.
So the teachers should always try to do their best to teach the students what they need to know about a particular course.
2: the school should also try to provide quality materials for teaching: when they are good and quality materials for learning, the students will enjoy the class and at the same time, pay attention to the teacher.
And this will make learning very effective.
And this will help to reduce examination Malpractice.

thank you for sharing your opinion about cheating during exams, we really appreciate your effort.
you have posted this article twice in our community, please be more careful so that next time there is no double posting. good luck in this contest.
Examination malpractice has gotten worse over the years. I think the social media has also contributed to this as students are always on social media instead of studying.
You are very right dear friend
