Cheating is exposed by 80% of the UAE students.

I feel disappointed when I read this percentage of the UAE student who exposed to cheating.

I agree with the writer about the lack of ability of students to understand how learning is important for their future career. Nowadays, students have different ways of cheating and they can generate more and more of ways if they have given the chance without any regulations.

I think there should be a strong policy to prevent this issue from becoming big and out of control.

This article is about UAE students who are exposed to cheating. Copying is the most familiar type of academic dishonesty, Mr. Ford, Vice –President for Student Affairs, the New York Institute of Technology pointed out, which students keep taking information via internet without quoting from where they got this information exactly. The highest number of academic dishonesty are showing in Business and Engineering schools, and it doesn’t depend on the size of the school, it depends on the honest and rules of behavior of that university

In additional, internet, cell phone and MP3 players can make academic dishonesty easier for the students. Academic honesty is facing difficulties in five major values: honesty; trust; fairness; respect and responsibility.

As Mr. Ford said there are many reasons for this issue such as: family pressure, trying to reach a good position in their future career and fearing of failure. In the other hand, students are ignoring that learning is important to their future occupation.
