Y'know, that seems like it would work. Which is odd, since every other video this guy has seems to be complete bollocks.

I used to write out my notes on the inside of the front cover of my calculator. I think that would be slightly less suspicious that constantly looking at the "Nutritional Information" on a bottle of pop.

Now, see, most of my exams that need notes/formulae provide them. So this isn't very helpful... The one exam I have this term that I could use that for, there's too many formulae anyways.

My highschool forbid labels on bottles of water or soda for this reason.
Also, I cheated once by writing the answers to the review questions (which almost always matched the test, lazy sod) with my eraser on the surface of my desk. So you could see it from a proper angle, and wipe it off afterwards. Turned out I knew the answers anyway, but *hey*...

"My highschool forbid labels on bottles of water or soda for this reason."
Not surprising since any educational institution by now would have gotten a hold of this video and modified their testing procedures accordingly.
And while we're on the subject of cheating, allow me to post the following:

I ran into similar problems when I managed to get a hold of the complete solutions for the textbook for one of my classes. The prof eventually caught on, there was a hearing, etc etc. Moral of the story: ITS. NOT. WORTH. IT.

"We asked if students should be allowed to share homework assignment tips on websites such as Facebook."
Isn't that the same as saying "we completely missed the point"?
The real problem is what the dean mentioned at the end of the article. The assignment was supposed to be done without any collaboration. The use of Facebook is completely irrelevant. If the students had gotten together at someone's house and exchanged answers, it would have been the same. The only difference is that the teacher probably wouldn't have found out about it (or, at least, couldn't have proved it).
No-one cares if students exchange answers on Facebook (or anywhere else). Unless the teacher says "don't exchange any of these answers".

I've heard tales of how my college physics professor once responded to something like that. Some students got the answer book and copied all the homework solutions out of it. They did no homework all semester, then turned it all in, perfect, on the last day. He knew what they'd done, he was mad, but somehow it wasn't a technical violation of the rules. So for his last lecture, he went through six chapters of quantum mechanics in 50 minutes.
Not a man I cared to make angry.

I had a teacher who would make the whole class go out in the hall and do six-pointers if one person misbehaved bad enough. He said it was to make the parties responsible feel bad that they put their friends through that punishment. Most of the time it worked. Once, the idiot didn't seem to care, so one of the larger kids in class punched him in the balls and gut. We all looked the other way. Even the teacher.

Salta'hna - I haven't been in higschool for four full years...I think they were just concerned about people writing stuff on this inside of the label. Dunno that this video was out back then
