Lang suggests shifting the focus from student disposition to contextual factors that influence cheating. The work draws on cognitive theory and research to empower faculty to reduce cheating and promote academic integrity. The book advocates for creating learning environments that prioritize mastery over performance, foster intrinsic motivation, and instill self-efficacy in students. Lang examines different assessment methods like quizzes, grounded assessments, and clear communication strategies to reduce academic dishonesty. Ultimately, it encourages institutions and educators to foster a culture of academic integrity through dialogue, clear policies, and a focus on student learning.
