There is this other article seemingly providing a counter view until you read the comments section. <a href="http://castingoutnines.wordpress.com/2010/11/24/cheating-at-central-florida/">http://castingoutnines.wordpress.com/2010/11/24/cheating-at-central-florida/</a> :-) regards, rakesh <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 29, 2010 at 5:07 AM, Christoph Derndorfer <<a href="mailto:e0425826@student.tuwien.ac.at">e0425826@student.tuwien.ac.at</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">Hi all, I just stumbled across this great article called "Cheating in Computer Science" (<a href="http://ubiquity.acm.org/article.cfm?id=1865908" target="_blank">http://ubiquity.acm.org/article.cfm?id=1865908</a>) which - despite its title - isn't really all that much about cheating in CS but rather an interesting reflection about our current education system in general. I'm sure that when reading through the last paragraph of page 1 others will also be strongly reminded of the great phrase Walter has used in many of his presentation: "school is the only place where collaboration is called cheating":-) Cheers Christoph -- Christoph Derndorfer co-editor, <a href="http://www.olpcnews.com" target="_blank">www.olpcnews.com</a> e-mail: <a href="mailto:christoph@olpcnews.com">christoph@olpcnews.com</a> _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) <a href="mailto:IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org">IAEP@lists.sugarlabs.org</a> <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep</a> </blockquote></div>
