Is Technology Making it Easier to Cheat in School?
Robert posed this very interesting question over on Lockergnome. The advancements in technology allow kids to take notes wirelessly and carry fewer physical books around in a backpack. However, they also have enabled teens to hack into a school grading system, steal and recycle written work by others, obtain copies of tests and find answers in a teacher’s account. There are now more ways to cheat the system than ever before.

Do you feel that a high number of kids are taking advantage of the advances in tech to obtain better grades? We all know kids hide their phones on their person while in class. Many of them have found ways to text friends right under a teacher’s nose. But are they using those same devices to cheat on tests or hack the grade records? What are your thoughts?
