Oh Great and Wise Knowledge Base. I would like to call on your collective expertise. I am updating some teacher resources on the topic of electronic cheating - not plagiarism, but cheating on tests. Do you know of any devices that can be used by TEACHERS to detect if students are sureptitiously using electronic devices such as cell phones, pagers, pds's etc. in the room? It is all well and good to ban such items. It is quite another to know if a student might be hiding something in a pocket or a waistband. What can a teacher do? I know that movie theatres showing the new Harry Potter movie were equipped with goggles or some such thing so that the ushers could detect if anyone was using electronic devices to pirate a copy of the film. I would appreciate the names of any such devices and/or specific web sites. articles, etc. --- or even some suggested search strategies. I am not having any luck coming up with anything. But I feel there must be something out there. Thanks for your help!
