Academic Integrity - Are your students really who you think they are?

Today I'd like to share a blog post on a subject that fills faculty and administrators of online programs with dread - the various ways students can cheat in online courses.

Recently, The Chronicle of Higher Education published an in-depth article relating the methods used by companies that promise to take a student's online course for them for a fee, now dubbed "Contract Cheating." You may find it an intriguing read. Be sure to open and read this while on campus; SVCC has a subscription. Faculty and Staff trying to read the article off campus have not been able to access the document.

We would love to see suggestions in the comments as to how this sort of cheating can be detected.
