It’s exam week for many of the nation’s high school and college students, and for some the intense pressure to succeed leads to cheating. From plagiarized papers to illicitly programmed iPods, we look at the prevalence and causes of student cheating and what schools are doing to combat it.

Guests:

Donald McCabe, professor of management and global business at Rutgers University and founder of the Center for Academic Integrity, now affiliated with Clemson University in South Carolina

Denise Clark Pope, lecturer at the Stanford University School of Education and author of the 2003 book, "Doing School: How We Are Creating a Generation of Stressed-Out, Materialistic, and Mis-educated Students"
