e-prompt

mr.ross, i can't open your website!!!!! so not cool! so I'm pretty sure i was supposed to post this.

if i remember correctly, the prompt was, if you could see someone blatantly cheating, and the teacher wasn't noticing, what would you do?

well, my first reaction is, I hate cheaters, put that loser down. But...I'm extremely ashamed to say this, but i myself am a cheater. (gasp! i know you are all SHOCKED!) and i know that sometimes there are other motives behind the cheating besides being a lazy, low-down slacker. (which i was totally being, by the way. well, this one time...anyways.) but if you are being obvious like that, it's not a mistake. So if this person is cheating on purpose, and you don't know whether they're just some random jerk, or really need this grade or whatever, what do you do?
...asking myself MORE QUESTIONS!!! not a good idea...
well, i think that it would be best to just talk to the guy(or girl) first, because maybe it WAS a mistake, maybe he(or she) thought you could use a calculator, or whatever his(or her) deal is. Talk it over with them first. Because judging from mr.ross's experience, talking to the teacher might not be the best idea. Plus, if someone called me out for doing something wrong, I would stop.
....now what do you thing about THAT? :)
