- – 36 All students should never cheat. Cheating is not good, you know. In fact, it will bring bad effects on students.
Of course, students can benefit from cheating because they can get better marks without having to make an effort. After having experienced the advantage of cheating one, they will do it again another time. What happens then? Well, they will lack confidence in their own abilities to study and learn, and will get used to getting good results the easy way: through cheating.
Moreover, since they do not study for tests, their knowledge will not improve. They just get good marks without knowing any materials for the test. You know, by doing this, students become liars who lie themselves.
If one day a teacher knows that his/her students have cheated, he/she will not trust them anymore.
