Do i keep letting people copy from my homework?
Girl, you better stop that right now...Put an end to it. People who do this later on will just be known as "She's the girl I used to copy off of". Toughen up or charge them, even better! Tell them I will give u the answer for a small fee...it not then get lost. I worked hard and you should too!
How should you reject your friend that just want to copy your homework?
There’s an at-least-two-dimensional parameter space here: how good a friend this is, and how often they do their own work.Take one easy area of the parameter space: let’s say this person is a good friend who you know to generally do their own work. But for whatever reason, this particular time, they didn’t or couldn’t.Would I let that person copy my work? Probably.Go to one corner of the grid: now it’s someone who is more or less a stranger, and you have no idea the extent to which they’re otherwise doing their own work. Would I let them copy my work? Sometimes. If they’re copying what I think is a routine calculation, probably. If they’re copying what I think was a tough problem, probably not.Go to the opposite edge: whether or not the person is a friend, if I know them to be totally lost in the class, it’s very unlikely that I’ll let them copy my work.As for the marginal cases… the cases in between the extremes… I’ll probably err on the side of letting them copy, but with an explicit or implicit warning that it will just be this once, and/or that I’m harshly judging them.
How can I decline giving my homework to people who don’t do it?
Eh. This is where you need to be prepared to make yourself temporarily unpopular.I prefer a terse denial, punctuated by an expletive if necessary, but you can couch yours in friendlier language if you’re concerned about getting stuck down a toilet.Just clench your jaw, grit your teeth, tell them to figure it out themselves and ride the wave of whining until they admit they haven’t done it or go on to the next victim. (People who do this regularly can be fantastically stupid. A boy once copied from me in elementary school - word for word, down to my name at the top of his sheet.)It’s also OK to bail out a friend - and if they do this every week and you’re getting sick of it, gently go into depth about why you’re not going to do it. But every single time, say it with conviction. I’m not very popular with the coasting crowd, but over time they do learn to stop asking.
What do I do if someone wants to copy my homework?
See my answer to the last time this type of question was asked.Basically, I think you should ask yourself why you are being forced to do the homework.The common reason given is to “help prepare you for the workforce” or help you “learn how to learn” or to teach you “discipline”I would argue that this is pure nonsense.The vast majority of your classmates won’t actually use most of what they learn when they graduate, learning in one domain does not increase your general intelligence, and any subject can teach you discipline.That being said it kind of depends on the subject.Homework for your abstinence only health education class? You should really let your friend copy you.Homework for a basic literacy class? Trickier question.
Why and how do top students refuse to give a homework solution to their classmates? Does this mean top students think others are also smart enough?
In high school, I had a strict policy that I would never share my work with the other students.This was for two reasons:I’ve never had a classmate actually ask “how” to do the problems, just what the answer was. I’m not doing them any favours if I tell them. And if I tell them the answer once, they’re going to pester me EVERY time they don’t know the answer. Teaching them “how” would be more effective, because then they’ll only bother me once for each type of problem. But that’s the teacher’s job. I have my own work to do.That’s all people see me for sometimes, and I don’t appreciate being used when it’s convenient for others. Seems people only came to me for assignments, or to ask if I’d share my snacks with them (I used to have a full Costco size bag of chips on an almost daily basis). But what about when I need help? Suddenly, they’re nowhere to be found.The only time others got to benefit off of my work was in a group project, because that’s the only time you’re supposed to share answers.
Should I share my homework answers to my friends if they ask me?
If I were you, I'd invite these people who want this from you to meet you somewhere quiet and do this homework together, in a study group. Let them each do a different numbered problem and then pass them around to be copied by all. If you do this, they might learn something. Lots of people feel more secure trying difficult homework if there's someone nearby who can help them, and can do more and better than they'd otherwise do alone. Further, they can ask you questions if they see a surprising method applied to your solutions, and it teaches them to set out time to study. If they don't make an effort to attend, or refuse to participate by not solving anything, you've got a right to say “no, you can't copy my work.”Should you risk their links by denying them what they want from you? I think so, for several reasons. Mainly they won't respect you if you don't set firm terms, and your links to them will be useless anyway without that respect. If they are realistic, they will understand that nothing in life is free, and this knowledge is important. They will also thank you later if they give it a try and plan to go to college based on grades your homework got them. Don't throw away the advantage being smart gives you in life by sharing your smarts with ungrateful, disrespectful people.
How to refuse someone who wants to borrow your homework ?
I think it will hurt the one if you say it's no good to stole others work.But it would make them stop their mouth to ask you again. So Petermaxey's answer is more decisive. whomeohno's answer is also good. It is polite but they will think you are selfish even though you kindly give them some other good pointers .They know you are cunning.
Should I give my friend my homework answers?
I think several other people gave pretty much the same answers I would give. But since I was requested specifically to respond I will. Partly it does depend on some facts we don't have which is does the assignment itself count a for the grade. I have experience in high school of a friend who loaned me his book in a particular class so I could do the assignment in exchange for which I would let him copy my work. That went along fine for both of us until the first test came along and he flunked and I didn't , and I think you see the problem with letting your friend simply copy your answers on the assignment. I am more concerned about the fact that your friend may be depressed . I think that would be a good issue to take well for your friend to take to the teacher. But if the purpose of the assignment is to prepare you for the exam your friend is going to be hurting either way .As a teacher I certainly wouldn't be happy with students copying each other's work, but in the long run it doesn't matter you won't do well in the class if you don't do your own work or at least if you can't do your own work . So really I would be much more concerned about your friend state of mind and getting some help with that than the questions of practicality or integrity and helping them do their workHowever I do think you should keep in mind that if you do this there is chance that you yourself be penalized for having helped in this wayFor your friend to put you in a position where you might get in trouble is not fair.
