[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah no, the teacher cannot do that.  They can give another/new test, they can adjust the weight of that test to be lower since honesty isn't guaranteed, they can drop the test entirely, they can choose to use an alternative assessment like a lab grade or something.  They cannot give a 0 for unconfirmed cheating to everyone, and they probably know it.

[b]This is an empty threat that is going to backfire on the teacher when the cheater doesn't come forward and the teacher can't give all 0s.[/b]

I would reach out to the teacher and say that you are concerned and can s/he please clarify what he plans to do?[/quote]

I can’t imagine how that’s allowed. It’s punishing the entire class for the action of one.[/quote]
Now this is peer pressure I can support [/quote]

As an adult, would you want to be punished for someones actions you had no idea about? If I was in this class and I didn’t know who cheated and I studied hard for my test then I would be so upset about this.[/quote]
