Academic Cheating: The Origins of a Threat to Educational Integrity
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: School cheating, a global issue, jeopardizes academic integrity and educational values. It stems from various factors such as fear of failure, social and academic pressure, peer influence, low awareness of consequences, and inequalities within the educational system. The rise of technology, particularly smartphones and the Internet, exacerbates the problem by making it harder to detect. In Morocco, this phenomenon reflects social and economic pressures while undermining the quality of education. Inequitable access to resources and perceived injustice within the system further fuel this practice. Addressing it requires implementing educational reforms, strengthening prevention efforts, and establishing effective monitoring mechanisms.
