That was a good post, and very informative, esp for those of us
who don't use cell phones and are unfamiliar with the techno-cheating
that might be occurring.
All the best,

The problem is, Louis, that the leading method of cheating on exams is
the
use of the cell phone!
Students use their phones to photograph the relevant pages of the text
book then recall them during the exam. Unless you teach in a very
small
classroom, it's almost impossible to catch them referring to the cell
phone during the test--it's just "lying there" on the desk or in their
laps.
