A SYDNEY girls' school is redefining the concept of cheating by
allowing students to "phone a friend" and use the internet and
i-Pods during exams.
But to
discourage plagiarism, they are required to cite all sources they
use.
Ms Coleman said her students were being encouraged to access
information from the internet, their mobile phones and podcasts
played on mp3s as part of a series of 40-minute tasks.
Presbyterian Ladies' College at Croydon is giving the assessment
method a trial run with year 9 English students and plans to expand
it to all subjects by the end of the year.
Mr Prensky threw out the following challenge to educators in a
British Educational Communications and Technology Agency
publication: "What if we allowed the use of mobile phones and
instant messaging to collect information during exams, redefining
such activity from 'cheating' to 'using our tools and including the
world in our knowledge base'?

"Our kids already see this on television. 'You can use a
lifeline to win $1 million,' said one. 'Why not to pass a stupid
test?' I have begun advocating the use of open phone tests …
Being able to find and apply the right information becomes more
important than having it all in your head."
