A teacher’s initiative to ensure exam integrity in a humorous way has gone viral
In all countries, cheating in exams is considered a very serious offense and all educational systems of the world are constantly looking for ways to eliminate the “phenomenon” which – for some strange reason – students always manage to avoid.
A college professor in the Philippines, Mrs. Mary Joy Mandane-Ortiz, had a very simple idea that was effective and fun at the same time. She asked her students to make homemade anti-copying hats and wear them in class during exam time.

The result; A real funny jumble of hand-made constructions on the students’ heads, which they couldn’t copy but at least had fun with.
