With the increase of cheating and plagiarism the faculty of many schools put policies and reprimands in place to bring the cheating to a halt. When a student is caught cheating a professor must make the decision of whether they want to follow policy procedure or handle the situation in class. One problem that comes from the professors handling the situation themselves is that the student feels they can still cheat without failing the class, as long as they can still walk away with a passing grade. Educational institutions have created policies that teacher’s are to include in the class syllabus so that the student is aware of the consequences from cheating. In most online classes the teachers will have the policies posted in the main forum for the students to reply that states they have read the rules.
