However, professors seem to be uncertain about what is really happening. Northwestern University Weinberg Assistant Dean Mark Sheldon pointed out in <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/dailynorthwestern.com\/2011\/10\/31\/campus\/campusarchived\/plagiarism-academic-dishonesty-on-the-rise-among-college-students-pew-survey-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Daily Northwestern<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that he and other faculty are \u201cunsure if more students are actually cheating or if detection methods have simply improved.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, students taking \u00a0unproctored online exams \u00a0have endless possibilities and resources thanks to technology. Sophisticated ways to cheat include graphing calculators which can store a plethora of information and the tiny computer most students have at their fingertips in the form of a cell phone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are students cheating more these days simply because they have more enhanced tools allowing them to do so? Reasons the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.glass-castle.com\/clients\/www-nocheating-org\/adcouncil\/research\/cheatingfactsheet.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ad Council<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> listed for college students cheating include: lack of an honor code; students who see other students cheating and feel they cannot be competitive unless they do, too; and limited risk of being caught. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Higher pressure than ever before paired with the apparent ease that technology affords are some reasons academic dishonesty has increased. Students are now cheating, \u201cnot just to survive, but to thrive,\u201d according to a <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/learning.blogs.nytimes.com\/2012\/09\/10\/why-do-students-cheat-in-school\/?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New York Times article<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> about student opinions on cheating in school. Excuses given by students interviewed include: school has gotten more difficult, it\u2019s easier to cheat with the available technology, less discipline from parents, having a good story to tell peers if they cheat, \u201cit\u2019s the norm,\u201d and pressure on high school students to get into a good college and on college students to keep academic or athletic scholarships. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As students have caught onto current technological advances, so has ProctorU. While preventing all cheating may not be possible, the very technology that permits cheating can also be used to mitigate that behavior. ProctorU takes advantage of screen-sharing technology to monitor student screens while testing, webcams in order to check materials and the rooms in which students test, and a multi-layered authentication process in order to verify test-taker identities that goes beyond simply checking an ID.
