You may think after reading
this myth that you don’t believe it applies to you but the only prove of
believe is in your actions. In my society our learning has been incapacitated
by this myth. We have institutionalized examination malpractice. This scourge,
which some years back was a tightly kept secret, now thrives enabled by
examination bodies, school administrations, invigilators, students and their
parents.
The problem with cheating to
learn is that it short-changes your brain, crashes your self-esteem, degrades
your integrity, removes your dignity, and makes you less likely to render
useful service to your society. At the end of it all, after you have cheated
your way to examination “success”, you haven’t learned anything.
Contrary to this myth I have
met learners who believed in themselves enough and had sufficient dignity to
refuse malpractice. They read, practiced, understood, and passed their
examinations with very good grades. As I said in the beginning, if one can do
it, you too can.
