Hi Liz,
We’ve come to the conclusion it would be too difficult, and are focusing instead on educating students about academic integrity with huge support from the Guild of Students, plus the usual Turnitin checks etc
(I know these won’t catch the bespoke essays).
Of course, this raises the question of whether a return to conventional exams is the way forward...

Subject: Students buying essays
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone’s institutions had implemented any checks or procedures to monitor and stop the student purchasing of essays (quite a difficult and slippery issue I realise)? I would be very grateful to hear from you
With thanks in advance
E.
