The article, written by RICHARD PEREZ-PENA,''Studies Find More Students Cheating, With The High Achievers No Exception'', is based on cheating in schools all over the country.Most of the students are cheating off the internet.Their plagiarizsing and cheating off of other peoples work on the internet.Studies also show that a study by Jefferey A. Roberts and David Wasieleski at Duquesne University learned that the more tools online that the college students get to use to complete an assignment, the more frequently they were to copy off others.But in overall the people just don't blame the students they blame the parents and the schools too.They think that the parents and the schools aren't doing thier jobs in educating the students.In a way to all this I would rather get a bad grade and then get help with it, then to copy off my class mates.
I believe that maybe there shouldn't be any cheating because how are you suppose to learn if your cheating off of an class mate.Do your best and try hard.I believe this topic is understanging, I know from the begining what it was about and it incouraged me to read on because this is something that I can relate to and understand.The author made it clear what he was talking about and I understood completely.
I have friends who would rather cheat then to make mistakes and then ask for help so they can learn more and next time they would know what to do.But not me I am more cofident to do it myself than to copy off of someone else.I don't need to do some thing like that because so many people incourage me.And that's a big difference.
I believe this article is  helped me more deeply because know I know that some people in the world might need some help and I can help them, now that I know.I guess the world is in major help and all we have to do is work together and help.I realized that now I can stop using school as a game and use it as and opportunity to get to have a good future.
