It it me or has there been what sounds like a great many homework sounding questions on Yahoo! since school started? What ever happened to doing the work for yourself? Isn't this a form of cheating?

Helping is one thing; explaining something or pointing someone in the right direction or giving them a website. Actually giving the answer does not help much. The student will not likely retain the information and in the end will not be successful. So I would have to say yes, it is a form of cheating.

I think it's cheating if you just write down the exact words as the answer that is given to you, but if you are just taking an idea from the answer and writing in your own words than this will not be called as cheating.

True, but at least they are dong some homework...it is cheating, really, I mean I can understand one question, but some kid put twenty social studies questions on here recently. If only they would put the same effort into getting their own answers and doing their own research...but no, fat lazy, it's ll about me American kids.

Oh, I don't know about that....many children do need help, and I don't mind helping with one problem, but I don't usually give the answer, just explain how to work the specific problem.
But, yes, there are more homework q's now.

Depends. If someone tells you the answer, without the work, then yes. But, if they show you the work, cause maybe you don't understand what to do, or understand the concept, then I wouldn't see what was wrong with that.
It's just like a calculator. If you don't know what is going into it, then you don't know what is coming out of it.

I don't think it's cheating, I just think it's getting homework help, if you come across questions like that, just make the question easier to understand, and don't give them the answer :)

in case you do not want your computing device/computing device turn it off. in case you like it for typing disconnect from the internet. placed on some music interior the history or on your headphones on a similar time as doing homework (It does not artwork for each guy or woman even though it retains me centred). Make a on a daily basis time table/planner and verify off each and each merchandise you complete. turn off or placed your cellular telephone on silent and turn off the television.

Don't worry about it. If they aren't trying to learn the material, it will be apparent once quizzes and tests come around.
