Based on previous workwith engineering students solving word problems in mathematics, each of the problems on theMechanics test were presented as word problems with no figures provided. Examples of twolevels of difficulty used in the problems are provided in the following examples: • A 5kg otter needs to cross a 10m wide stream that is flowing at 10m/s. Assuming the otter can swim at a rate of 2m/s, how far up stream must she start to end up directly across from where she is

Many of the NCA factors aremalleable, so understanding these patterns is a crucial step towards introducing initiatives in theclassroom to help students reach their full potential. The

. Posting immediately maximizes the time for a tutor to post a solution, and since mostsolutions were put up within an hour, the cheater(s) have time to read the solution and copy it ontheir exam if they chose.An exam window shorter than the 2 hours allowed in this class may be a way to reduce theeffectiveness of cheating seen here. Shorter exam windows would give less time for solutions tobe posted, and less time for students to look for and copy those solutions. Exams could also betimed on a per-problem basis with no opportunity to return to previous questions. This woulddecrease the window for Chegg to provide a useful response. Another way to minimize theeffectiveness of this cheating could include exams with only longer problems. The
