Do you think people aren't cheating in school already? Cheating is primarily a symptom of mixed incentives. When the goal is to pass a test, cheating is the obvious, correct solution - you're an idiot if you don't cheat, frankly, if your goal is to get a good grade. If your goal is to learn, and failure is considered safe and a necessary part of the process, you'll never cheat. I strongly believe that human beings fundamentally want to learn. In fact, I'd generalize that to most intelligent life - learning provides a feeling of satisfaction. It is only in this nonsensical system where we conflate learning with grades that we can, through decades of abuse, start to not want to learn.
