Hey guys,



As educational technology increases, students are using it more and more to complete assignments. One thing that I am running into is that I will post an assignment/project in MS Word. What the cheaters will do is get a student who completed the assignment to give them an electronic copy of the assignment that they completed so they can hand it in as their own.

I can catch them sometimes by the 'last modified' option, but that is not reliable. I also see some documents that have an editing time of 1 or 2 minutes for an assignment that might take 40 minutes.

What can I do to have more concrete evidence? Is there a particular way to set up the word file before I assign it? what are the options?

Thanks....
