AVOID PLAGIARISM LIKE THE PLAGUE
It seems that plagiarism is becoming a lucrative industry. Buying assignments results and presenting them as one’s own is becoming normative among students. We MUST teach students to shun this ‘lie’.
DON’T BOW DOWN AND HAIL
Reports on educational trends, directions, and how they should be are rarely ending. We would be foolish to ‘jump’ at every movement. We need an education that is steady, predictable and reassuring.
THINK OF STUDENT WHEN ASSESSING
When assessing student work, I try to think of myself as the student. How would/will I ‘feel’ when checking the assigned grade? Will I be pleased, happy, relieved, disbelieving or despairing?
EDUCATION, A LIFE FORCE 
Henry, these are problems for every student: it is normal to sometimes copy a test to avoid getting a bad grade. And this happens because students are considered numbers and this is scary. The teacher should make her lesson understood in a simple way and make “everyone” good at it.
