As Part of a Required Ethics Course, Students Were Required

Essay

As part of a required ethics course, students were required to take an online 90 minute ethics final. Facing graduation and many pressures with starting new jobs and moving, the students worked together to complete the final. Since the essays were all closely worded the same, the instructor could determine that some sort of cheating on the ethics exam had taken place. Using ethical decision making model, what should the school, instructor and students do? Would the suggested solution be different if the school had an honor code?
