Teachers’ Perceptions on Examination Malpractice at Secondary School Level: A Descriptive Investigation

Abstract

The study focused on the identification of factors which are involved in examination malpractice, along with identification of the easiest way of cheating adopted by the students and proposed tentative solutions to prevent examination malpractice. From the literature, six factors of examination malpractice were identified and tested against null hypotheses. For carrying out this research, three objectives and six null hypotheses were formulated. The survey design was used and data were collected from 290 secondary school teachers of Karachi through a random sampling technique. Findings of the study revealed that parents, school culture, teachers’ role, education system, social factors, and students’ attitude toward the study have a significant contribution in examination malpractice. It was also found that copying from other students is the easiest way of cheating in exams. Majority teachers suggested that examination malpractice can be prevented by securing question paper. Based on the findings, security of the question papers are highly recommended. Furthermore, parents and teachers and parents should not pressurize students for marks instead they should ensure that students study enough.
