Claim 3:
4. The method of claim 1, further comprising
determining collusion groups from the collusion scores by:
identifying pairs of students with a first member of the pair having a collusion score above a first predetermined threshold and the second member of the pair having a collusion score above a second predetermined threshold, where the second predetermined threshold is greater than the first predetermined threshold;
combining identified pairs of students into provisional groups when pairs share one or more members;
creating collusion groups from provisional groups by, for each provisional group, combining an additional provisional group into the provisional group if two members of the provisional group have a third member of the additional provisional group as a second partner and the collusion score of the third member is greater than the second predetermined threshold, where the third member is a second partner to each of the two members when they have the second highest identity score in pairs with each of the two members, where the collusion groups are referenced by student identifiers for the students in each group; and

writing collusion groups including student identifiers of students associated with each collusion group to the output electronic file.
