In this article, we present data from 2,151 upper division undergraduate students regarding the frequency of cheating, reasons for cheating, and influence of penalties on cheating. We also discuss how a model that develops an internalized code of ethics will counteract academic dishonesty.

In this paper we show that the total variation diminishing (TVD) finite difference scheme which was analysed by Sweby [8] can be interpreted as a Lax-Wendroff scheme plus an upwind weighted artificial dissipation term. We then show that if we choose a particular flux limiter and remove the requirement for upwind weighting, we obtain an artificial dissipation term which is based on the theory of TVD schemes, which does not contain any problem dependent parameters and which can be added to existing MacCormack method codes. Finally, we conduct numerical experiments to examine the performance of this new method.
