Hi every body
I have a problem that summons attention of all those who really care for the education of our young ones. We very honestly solve different problems of our children on Yahoo answers where every body is free to participate. I have recently found that there was a homework problem of Mathematics given by some student. It was a bit complicated one. I found many solutions in the yahoo answers. Except for two answers, other were either wrong or not serious ones. After a few days I found that a WRONG solution was selected by voters to be the best. I have nothing to say against the people’s verdict. But as a teacher I am really concerned with the fate of Students who consider these solutions to be authentic. Will the students be led astray?? I would request all the wise persons who really care for our young generation to come forward with some feasible solution and request Yahoos to consider it.

I think it's a good lesson to learn, personally. That student who copied down the wrong answer will get the question wrong, and if the teacher is good then he will explain why. If the student cares about his work, next time he will be more careful and use his own brain as well when he asks for help from others. If he really doesn't care, well then I don't think that there's anything that anyone else can do about it.

As you can see by one of your answers sometimes this is done deliberately. The other problem is we can all vote for ourselves for Best Answer. In all probability that is why the person was voted as Best. They voted for them self and if they cheat and have more than one account they vote twice for themselves.
If the students that ask the question would have the "COMMON COURTESY" to take the time to vote for a BA this could pretty well be avoided. I would venture a guess of 95% that DO NOT pick BA!
If you check the percentages on the leaderboards you will see that some have EXTREMELY high best answer percentages which leaves me suspect.
I hope this helps you understand part of the problem.
It's not just homework help that is the problem. When people are suggesting highly toxic plants to be around their pets it shows complete and utter disrespect for any that actually give correct information.
Most people don't seem to pay attention to:
"Know your source? List it here:"
My granddaughter is a highschool calculus teacher and she has made note of this.

As a teacher, you should accept or learn to accept that you can not reach every student out there.
If a student does not understand something, the best way to find serious help would be to see the teacher, not through a computer screen.

As you will discover by skill of one among your solutions each so often it rather is performed intentionally. the different situation is we are in a place to all vote for ourselves for ultimate answer. likely for this reason the guy grow to be voted as ultimate. They voted for them self and in the event that they cheat and characteristic greater advantageous than one account they vote two times for themselves. If the pupils that ask the question could have the "hardship-unfastened COURTESY" to make the attempt to vote for a BA this could fairly plenty be prevented. i could project a risk of 95% that don't p.c.. BA! in case you verify the percentages on the leaderboards you will see that some have fairly intense ultimate answer opportunities which leaves me suspect. i'm hoping this permits you already know area of the situation. it rather is no longer in basic terms homework help it rather is the situation. whilst anybody is suggesting particularly poisonous plant life to be around their pets it shows finished and utter disrespect for any that actual supply best concepts. maximum persons do no longer seem to be responsive to: "be responsive to your source? checklist it right here:" My granddaughter is a highschool calculus instructor and she or he has made understand this. playstation I actual have further this to the talk board domicile/talk board/weblog/HelpAnswers devoid of consequences. click on the talk board greater suited hand nook and post this on the suggestion talk board.
