Hi, I just got a note from our librarian that our College was just billed $1900 for our Anthrosource subscription. Last year, & the previous, it was a few...
I've received notification of this survey twice now (and have taken it), so apologies if this is old news to you. If your teaching employment is part-time or...
Deborah, Thanks for posting the video on cheating. I had a similar circumstance, but on a much, much smaller scale than that discussed in the video. I took a...
It appears the video at the first link has been taken down. I suspect the second student's remarks about how everyone cheats--"it's no big deal"--etc., may...
Interesting video. Our problem is under the current interpretation of state law by our legal counsel we can only give a zero for the specific assignment or...
Doesn't their argument all boil down to, "If the professor uses standard questions that we can get our hands on, then it isn't our fault"? ...

Yes, I think you nailed it, Deborah. It's a good insight into the "entitlement" mentality that (so I've heard) pervades much student thinking nowadays. But...
All incredibly interesting. I found this on YahooNews, and wondered when SACC-L would pick it up. Will have to view the student response. The second...
Not much chance of improving things! Students learn this attitude and behavior from the culture. I just heard in the radio that Bush 43 has now been accused of...
Cheating in test-taking and plagiarism are depressing issues these days. My school is now forming a faculty/staff committee to create firmer guidelines for...
Did anyone see the article in a recent 'Chronicle of Higher Ed', supposedly written by someone who writes papers on the behalf of students for a living? I...

We've had a case of a parent taking the on-line class for a student. In spite of this, we keep being told that cheating is no more of a problem with online...
We are looking at this right now at our school. The eLearing office is exploring ways to verify the identity of online students. One question that has been...
Starting a few weeks ago, our class lists now come with a photo of the student (presumably the same one taken for their student card). Bob ... We are looking...
I'm retired, but teaching an online and an in-person class. This Fall I decided to check IDs in my in-person class. During our August department meeting...
All: We will have six papers at the Five-Field in New Orleans - in just a few days. As such, there will be very little time for me to make any comments at the...

Is this the article you mean? Someone at my school just passed the link around campus. http://chronicle.com/article/The-Shadow-Scholar/125329/ What is really...
Is anybody from SACC going to the AAA meetings going to be tweeting on Twitter or facebooking on Facebook? I'd do it, but alas....I'm not attending this year....
Laura is going! I have signed in, but I'm not much into posting... Mary Kay From: SACC-L@yahoogroups.com [mailto:SACC-L@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Bob...
Since I'll be retiring in January, there's a very good chance that a full-time, tenure-track position in anthropology will be opening up, probably by Fall or...

Yes, I'll be tweeting, but only when I get access to my computer. Don't yet have a fancy phone with a Twitter app. Expect lots of tweets about my food. ... ...
This article really offends me. He seems to be trying to foist some of the blame for his own heinous behavior off on educators. Of course we wonder how ...
