Write a cause paragraph OR an effect paragraph in which you discuss three causes OR three effects of cheating.

Cheating is one of the most concern behaviors at school all over the world. There are many different ways of cheating such as copying homework, looking at another individual paper during exam, plagiarizing, and so on. It has been considered to be the worst behavior since it causes a lot of bad effects to the cheaters in the future. In this way, cheaters do not have their own ability to do their own works, so in the future when they get a job, they will lack of ability to do their jobs too which may cause them to get unemployment. There are many reasons why students like cheating, but according to some researchers, there are top three reasons why students are likely to cheat: lack of effort, external pressures and opportunity.

To begin with, cheating is likely to be occurring on students who are lack of effort in their studying. Students who did not attend class or did not study are considered to be lack of effort students.  Those students are rare to get passed by themselves; thus, cheating is a good way for them to get passed. Exams are usually extracted from the lessons that the students have learnt, so it is essential for the students to attend every class and keep their concentrating while studying in order to do well on the exams without cheating. According to

External pressures are other main causes of cheating. There are two kind of external pressures: academic and nonacademic pressure. For the academic pressure, there are too many tests for the students on one day, so they need cheating in order to facilitate them to do the test. In this respect, people are easily making mistakes when they have done a lot of works; hence, they need other people to check for them. Similarly, while there is a lot of tests for the students in one dayduring the exam, students who have done their exams are likely to check with other students in order to make sure and correct any mistakes. This habit too is considered cheating since exams do not allow students to check each other works. Another possibility for academic pressure on cheating is that the majority does it. If everybody does it,  

Moving onto the first effect of cheating is that it makes the students to lose their responsibility for their own works. Students who are copying other people’s works feel that they do not need to do anything to pass their exams; all they need is just turn in the paper to their teachers and get the passing grade. Earl quotes, “Information cannot replace education” (Earl, 2002).  Losing one’s responsibility could create a lot of problems for individuals. In the real world, it is essential for everybody to responsible for what they have done. If everyone does not take any responsibility for something that they have done wrong, so there will be no correction for now and in the future. Therefore, the mistakes will remain last forever. Furthermore, many companies today are likely to hire only employees who are responsible to do their own work for the company. Due to all these reasons, it is crucial for the students to start to take responsibility for their own works since they are at school as it is a good place to start and practice.

           Losing creativity is another main effect of cheating. Students who are cheating do not put any effort to their works at all which will lead them to gradually lose their creativity level every time they copy other’s works or have someone to do their works instead themselves. The more times the students do their own work, the more times that they gain their thinking creativity and successfully ability. The ability to think creativity and successfully plays an important role for the world in the future. In this way, when the world has a lot of creativity people, the development of the world will becomes more and more faster and vice versa. . Thus, we should do something to get rid out of cheating at school in order to gain more creativity people in the future for the benefits of both people and the world since students are the ones who are partly held the world in the future.
