This app doesn't just do your homework for you, it shows you how

cheat on math homework

A little confession from me. I was homeschooled (that's not the confession part), and in 8th grade my algebra textbook had the answers to half the problems in the back. And when I was stumped, I would cheat.

Sorry, mom!

Of course, cheating at math is a terrible way to learn, because the whole point isn't to know the answer to 2x + 2 = 7x - 5, it's to understand the methodology that can solve any like problem.

But what if you could cheat at your homework and learn? That seems to be the premise behind app called Socratic . Or at least that's my takeaway. The app lets you take a picture of a problem (you can also type it in, but that's a little laborious), and it'll not only give you an answer, but the steps necessary to to arrive at that answer — and even detailed explanations of the steps and concepts if you need them.

The app is actually designed to answer any kind of school question — science, history, etc. — but the math thing is the slickest part. For other kinds of questions, Socratic kind of does a bit of Googling, and in my experience can typically find similar word problems on the wide internet, or from its own database of answers. On about half the middle school science problems I tried, the app was able to identify the topic at question and show me additional resources about the concepts involved, but for others it was no more powerful than a simple web search.

But for algebra this thing is sick. I pointed it at 2x + 2 = 7x - 5, which I wrote down at random, and it gave me a 10 step process that results in x = 7/5. It has trouble with word problems, but if you can write down a word problem in math notation it shouldn't be an issue. I also tried it on a weird fraction from an AP algebra exam, which it kind of failed at, but then I swiped over and it was showing me this graph, which included the correct answer:

cheat on math homework

I love this app, not just because it would've helped 8th grade Paul out of a jam, but because it's such a computery use of computers. You use the tiny computer in your pocket to be basically smarter than you already are. It's technology that augments a human brain, not just a distraction.

The creator of Socratic just open sourced its step-by-step solver , called mathsteps. There are a lot of computer-based algebra solvers out there, but for Socratic they had to do some extra engineering to get at the steps a human would need to solve the same problem.

Also, I'd be remiss not to mention Photomath , which has been doing this since 2014, and actually has step-by-step explanations in the recently released Photomath+ paid version (there's a free trial). I like the Socratic interface and explanations a bit better, but I'm glad to see this is a vibrant market.

7 Apps That Can Do Your Homework Much Faster Than You

7 Apps That Will Do Your Homework For You

In the field of educational technology, some apps might be getting too smart.

More and more apps are delivering on-demand homework help to students, who can easily re-purpose the learning tools to obtain not just assistance, but also answers. Whether or not that’s cheating—and how to stop it—is one of the concerns surrounding a new app that can solve math equations with the snap of a camera . While the software has inspired teachers to create real-world homework problems that can’t be automatically solved , that strategy doesn’t hold up to other apps that tap into real-life brains for solutions.

Here’s a look at 7 apps that can do your homework for you, and what they have to say about cheating:

Price : Free Availability : iOS, Android app coming in early 2015

The new, seemingly magic app allows users to take pictures of typed equations, and then outputs a step-by-step solution. As of Wednesday, the app is the number one free app on the App Store. But the biggest issue, one teacher argues , isn’t if students will use the app to cheat, because many will. Rather, it’s about how teachers will adapt. A PhotoMath spokeswoman said educators have welcomed the app with positive reviews, but the software remains “quite controversial.”

“We didn’t develop PhotoMath as a cheating tool. We really wanted kids to learn,” said Tijana Zganec, a sales and marketing associate at tech company MicroBlink, which created PhotoMath. “If you want to cheat, you will find a way to cheat. But if you want to learn, you can use PhotoMath for that.”

Whether you’re a high schooler with eight periods of classes or a college student tackling dozens of credits, there’s one thing you’ve got for sure: a mess of assignments. iHomework can help you keep track of all your work, slicing and dicing it in a variety of ways. Sorting it by due date, week, month, or by course, the app is more organized than a Trapper Keeper. And in integrating data from Questia, you can link your reading material to your assignments so you don’t have to dig through a pile of papers to find the right information.

A scheduling feature can help you keep track of those random bi-weekly Thursday labs, and you can even mark the location of your courses on a map so you don’t end up on the wrong side of campus. And finally, with iCloud syncing, you can access all this information on whatever Apple-compatible device you’re using at the moment — no need to dig for your iPad.

Google Apps for Education

Taking the search giant’s suite of free browser-based apps and sandboxing them so they are safe for school use, Google Apps for Education is an excellent alternative to the mainstream installable productivity software, but this one has a perk that almost school board will love—it’s free. Packaging together favorites like Gmail, Hangouts, Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Drive with Classroom, a digital hub for organizing assignments and sending feedback, the goal of this collection is to make learning a more collaborative process.

Though Google Apps for Education is cloud-hosted, the programs can be used offline, ideal for when your student needs to escape the internet and work distraction-free. And since it works on any device, it also helps students avoid buying overly expensive hardware. That means more money for extracurricular activities.

Price: Free, but some homework services require payment Availability: iOS and Android

HwPic is a tutoring service that allows students to take send pictures of their homework to tutors, who will then respond within minutes to your questions with a step-by-step solution. There’s even an option to expedite the answers if a student is in a hurry. HwPic Co-Founder Tiklat Issa said that the app was initially rejected by Apple’s App Store, which believed it would promote cheating, but he successfully argued that just because someone uses the app in a way that it’s not meant to be used doesn’t mean the app should be punished.

Issa added that HwPic prohibits cheating in its terms and conditions. Tutors don’t solve homework that has words like “Quiz” or “Exam,” and they often know if a student is sending a photo during a test if they’ve paid for expedited answers, and if the photo is dim, blurry and taken under a desk. “We’ve minimized cheating,” said Issa. “We haven’t eliminated it. That’s kind of unrealistic.”

Wolfram Alpha

Price : $2.99 Availability : iOS and Android

Wolfram Alpha is similar to PhotoMath, only that it targets older students studying high levels of math and doesn’t support photos. The service also outputs step-by-step solutions to topics as advanced as vector calculus and differential equations, making it a popular tool for college students.

“It’s cheating not doing computer-based math, because we’re cheating students out of real conceptual understanding and an ability to drive much further forward in the math they can do, to cover much more conceptual ground. And in turn, that’s cheating our economies,” said Conrad Wolfram, Wolfram Research’s Director of Strategic Development, in a TEDx Talk . “People talk about the knowledge economy. I think we’re moving forward to what we’re calling the computational knowledge economy.”

Homework Helper

Price: Free Availability: iOS and Android

Chinese Internet search company Baidu launched an app called Homework Helper this year with which students can crowdsource help or answers to homework. Users post a picture or type their homework questions onto online forums, and those who answer the questions can win e-coins that can be used to buy electronics like iPhones and laptops.

The app has logged 5 million downloads, much to the dismay of many some parents who argue that the students spend less time thinking about challenging problems. A Homework Helper staffer admitted to Quartz , “I think this is a kind of cheating.”

Price: Free, but some homework services require payment Availability: iOS

Slader is a crowdsourcing app for high school and college students to post and answer questions in math and science. While students can post original homework for help, many questions in popular textbooks have already been answered on the app, according to Fast Company . An Illinois high school said earlier this year that it suspected students were using the service to cheat on their math homework.

Slader argues that it’s “challenging traditional ideas about math and education,” and said that the ideas behind its app “aren’t a write-off to teachers,” according to its blog . Slader told San Francisco media outlet KQED that it shouldn’t be dismissed as a cheating tool, but rather considered a way for students to access real-time help.

Listen: we know homework isn’t fun, but it is a good way to reinforce the ideas and concepts you’ve learned in class. But what if you’re really struggling with your homework assignments? 

If you’ve looked online for a little extra help with your take-home assignments, you’ve probably stumbled across websites claiming to provide the homework help and answers students need to succeed . But can homework help sites really make a difference? And if so, which are the best homework help websites you can use? 

Below, we answer these questions and more about homework help websites–free and paid. We’ll go over: 

  • The basics of homework help websites 
  • The cost of homework help websites 
  • The five best homework websites out there 
  • The pros and cons of using these websites for homework help 
  • The line between “learning” and “cheating” when using online homework help

So let’s get started!

The Basics About Homework Help Websites–Free and Paid

Homework help websites are designed to help you complete your homework assignments, plain and simple. 

What Makes a Homework Help Site Worth Using

Most of the best sites allow users to ask questions and then provide an answer (or multiple possible answers) and explanation in seconds. In some instances, you can even send a photo of a particular assignment or problem instead of typing the whole thing out! 

Homework help sites also offer more than just help answering homework questions. Common services provided are Q&A with experts, educational videos, lectures, practice tests and quizzes, learning modules, math solving tools, and proofreading help. Homework help sites can also provide textbook solutions (i.e. answers to problems in tons of different textbooks your school might be using), one-on-one tutoring, and peer-to-peer platforms that allow you to discuss subjects you’re learning about with your fellow students. 

And best of all, nearly all of them offer their services 24/7, including tutoring! 

What You Should Should Look Out For

When it comes to homework help, there are lots–and we mean lots –of scam sites out there willing to prey on desperate students. Before you sign up for any service, make sure you read reviews to ensure you’re working with a legitimate company. 

A word to the wise: the more a company advertises help that veers into the territory of cheating, the more likely it is to be a scam. The best homework help websites are going to help you learn the concepts you’ll need to successfully complete your homework on your own. (We’ll go over the difference between “homework help” and “cheating” a little later!) 

body-gold-piggy-bank-money

You don't need a golden piggy bank to use homework help websites. Some provide low or no cost help for students like you!

How Expensive Are the Best Homework Help Websites?

First of all, just because a homework help site costs money doesn’t mean it’s a good service. Likewise, just because a homework help website is free doesn’t mean the help isn’t high quality. To find the best websites, you have to take a close look at the quality and types of information they provide! 

When it comes to paid homework help services, the prices vary pretty widely depending on the amount of services you want to subscribe to. Subscriptions can cost anywhere from $2 to $150 dollars per month, with the most expensive services offering several hours of one-on-one tutoring with a subject expert per month.

The 5 Best Homework Help Websites 

So, what is the best homework help website you can use? The answer is that it depends on what you need help with. 

The best homework help websites are the ones that are reliable and help you learn the material. They don’t just provide answers to homework questions–they actually help you learn the material. 

That’s why we’ve broken down our favorite websites into categories based on who they’re best for . For instance, the best website for people struggling with math might not work for someone who needs a little extra help with science, and vice versa. 

Keep reading to find the best homework help website for you! 

Best Free Homework Help Site: Khan Academy

  • Price: Free!
  • Best for: Practicing tough material 

Not only is Khan Academy free, but it’s full of information and can be personalized to suit your needs. When you set up your account , you choose which courses you need to study, and Khan Academy sets up a personal dashboard of instructional videos, practice exercises, and quizzes –with both correct and incorrect answer explanations–so you can learn at your own pace. 

As an added bonus, it covers more course topics than many other homework help sites, including several AP classes.

Runner Up: Brainly.com offers a free service that allows you to type in questions and get answers and explanations from experts. The downside is that you’re limited to two answers per question and have to watch ads. 

Best Paid Homework Help Site: Chegg

  • Price: $14.95 to $19.95 per month
  • Best for: 24/7 homework assistance  

This service has three main parts . The first is Chegg Study, which includes textbook solutions, Q&A with subject experts, flashcards, video explanations, a math solver, and writing help. The resources are thorough, and reviewers state that Chegg answers homework questions quickly and accurately no matter when you submit them.  

Chegg also offers textbook rentals for students who need access to textbooks outside of their classroom. Finally, Chegg offers Internship and Career Advice for students who are preparing to graduate and may need a little extra help with the transition out of high school. 

Another great feature Chegg provides is a selection of free articles geared towards helping with general life skills, like coping with stress and saving money. Chegg’s learning modules are comprehensive, and they feature solutions to the problems in tons of different textbooks in a wide variety of subjects. 

Runner Up: Bartleby offers basically the same services as Chegg for $14.99 per month. The reason it didn’t rank as the best is based on customer reviews that say user questions aren’t answered quite as quickly on this site as on Chegg. Otherwise, this is also a solid choice!

body-photomath-logo-2

Best Site for Math Homework Help: Photomath

  • Price: Free (or $59.99 per year for premium services) 
  • Best for: Explaining solutions to math problems

This site allows you to t ake a picture of a math problem, and instantly pulls up a step-by-step solution, as well as a detailed explanation of the concept. Photomath also includes animated videos that break down mathematical concepts to help you better understand and remember them. 

The basic service is free, but for an additional fee you can get extra study tools and learn additional strategies for solving common math problems.

Runner Up: KhanAcademy offers in-depth tutorials that cover complex math topics for free, but you won’t get the same tailored help (and answers!) that Photomath offers. 

Best Site for English Homework Help: Princeton Review Academic Tutoring

  • Price: $40 to $153 per month, depending on how many hours of tutoring you want 
  • Best for: Comprehensive and personalized reading and writing help 

While sites like Grammarly and Sparknotes help you by either proofreading what you write via an algorithm or providing book summaries, Princeton Review’s tutors provide in-depth help with vocabulary, literature, essay writing and development, proofreading, and reading comprehension. And unlike other services, you’ll have the chance to work with a real person to get help. 

The best part is that you can get on-demand English (and ESL) tutoring from experts 24/7. That means you can get help whenever you need it, even if you’re pulling an all-nighter! 

This is by far the most expensive homework site on this list, so you’ll need to really think about what you need out of a homework help website before you commit. One added benefit is that the subscription covers over 80 other subjects, including AP classes, which can make it a good value if you need lots of help!  

body-studtypool-logo

Best Site for STEM Homework Help: Studypool

  • Best for: Science homework help
  • Price: Varies; you’ll pay for each question you submit

When it comes to science homework help, there aren’t a ton of great resources out there. The best of the bunch is Studypool, and while it has great reviews, there are some downsides as well. 

Let’s start with the good stuff. Studypool offers an interesting twist on the homework help formula. After you create a free account, you can submit your homework help questions, and tutors will submit bids to answer your questions. You’ll be able to select the tutor–and price point–that works for you, then you’ll pay to have your homework question answered. You can also pay a small fee to access notes, lectures, and other documents that top tutors have uploaded. 

The downside to Studypool is that the pricing is not transparent . There’s no way to plan for how much your homework help will cost, especially if you have lots of questions! Additionally, it’s not clear how tutors are selected, so you’ll need to be cautious when you choose who you’d like to answer your homework questions.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Using Homework Help Sites?

Homework help websites can be a great resource if you’re struggling in a subject, or even if you just want to make sure that you’re really learning and understanding topics and ideas that you’re interested in. But, there are some possible drawbacks if you don’t use these sites responsibly. 

We’ll go over the good–and the not-so-good–aspects of getting online homework help below. 

3 Pros of Using Homework Help Websites 

First, let’s take a look at the benefits. 

#1: Better Grades Beyond Homework

This is a big one! Getting outside help with your studies can improve your understanding of concepts that you’re learning, which translates into better grades when you take tests or write essays. 

Remember: homework is designed to help reinforce the concepts you learned in class. If you just get easy answers without learning the material behind the problems, you may not have the tools you need to be successful on your class exams…or even standardized tests you’ll need to take for college. 

#2: Convenience

One of the main reasons that online homework help is appealing is because it’s flexible and convenient. You don’t have to go to a specific tutoring center while they’re open or stay after school to speak with your teacher. Instead, you can access helpful resources wherever you can access the internet, whenever you need them.

This is especially true if you tend to study at off hours because of your extracurriculars, work schedule, or family obligations. Sites that offer 24/7 tutoring can give you the extra help you need if you can’t access the free resources that are available at your school. 

#3: Variety

Not everyone learns the same way. Maybe you’re more of a visual learner, but your teacher mostly does lectures. Or maybe you learn best by listening and taking notes, but you’re expected to learn something just from reading the textbook . 

One of the best things about online homework help is that it comes in a variety of forms. The best homework help sites offer resources for all types of learners, including videos, practice activities, and even one-on-one discussions with real-life experts. 

This variety can also be a good thing if you just don’t really resonate with the way a concept is being explained (looking at you, math textbooks!).

Not so fast. There are cons to homework help websites, too. Get to know them below!

3 Cons of Using Homework Help Websites 

Now, let’s take a look at the drawbacks of online homework help. 

#1: Unreliable Info

This can be a real problem. In addition to all the really good homework help sites, there are a whole lot of disreputable or unreliable sites out there. The fact of the matter is that some homework help sites don’t necessarily hire people who are experts in the subjects they’re talking about. In those cases, you may not be getting the accurate, up-to-date, and thorough information you need.

Additionally, even the great sites may not be able to answer all of your homework questions. This is especially true if the site uses an algorithm or chatbot to help students…or if you’re enrolled in an advanced or college-level course. In these cases, working with your teacher or school-provided tutors are probably your best option. 

#2: No Clarification

This depends on the service you use, of course. But the majority of them provide free or low-cost help through pre-recorded videos. Watching videos or reading info online can definitely help you with your homework… but you can’t ask questions or get immediate feedback if you need it .

#3: Potential For Scamming 

Like we mentioned earlier, there are a lot of homework help websites out there, and lots of them are scams. The review comments we read covered everything from outdated or wrong information, to misleading claims about the help provided, to not allowing people to cancel their service after signing up. 

No matter which site you choose to use, make sure you research and read reviews before you sign up–especially if it’s a paid service! 

body-cheat-cheating-cc0

When Does “Help” Become “Cheating”?

Admittedly, whether using homework help websites constitutes cheating is a bit of a grey area. For instance, is it “help” when a friend reads your essay for history class and corrects your grammar, or is it “cheating”? The truth is, not everyone agrees on when “help” crosses the line into “cheating .” When in doubt, it can be a good idea to check with your teacher to see what they think about a particular type of help you want to get. 

That said, a general rule of thumb to keep in mind is to make sure that the assignment you turn in for credit is authentically yours . It needs to demonstrate your own thoughts and your own current abilities. Remember: the point of every homework assignment is to 1) help you learn something, and 2) show what you’ve learned. 

So if a service answers questions or writes essays for you, there’s a good chance using it constitutes cheating. 

Here’s an example that might help clarify the difference for you. Brainstorming essay ideas with others or looking online for inspiration is “help” as long as you write the essay yourself. Having someone read it and give you feedback about what you need to change is also help, provided you’re the one that makes the changes later. 

But copying all or part of an essay you find online or having someone write (or rewrite) the whole thing for you would be “cheating.” The same is true for other subjects. Ultimately, if you’re not generating your own work or your own answers, it’s probably cheating.

5 Tips for Finding the Best Homework Help Websites for You

Now that you know some of our favorite homework help websites, free and paid, you can start doing some additional research on your own to decide which services might work best for you! Here are some top tips for choosing a homework help website. 

Tip 1: Decide How You Learn Best 

Before you decide which site or sites you’re going to use for homework help, y ou should figure out what kind of learning style works for you the most. Are you a visual learner? Then choose a site that uses lots of videos to help explain concepts. If you know you learn best by actually doing tasks, choose a site that provides lots of practice exercises.

Tip 2: Determine Which Subjects You Need Help With

Just because a homework help site is good overall doesn’t mean that it’s equally good for every subject. If you only need help in math, choose a site that specializes in that area. But if history is where you’re struggling, a site that specializes in math won’t be much help. So make sure to choose a site that you know provides high-quality help in the areas you need it most. 

Tip 3: Decide How Much One-On-One Help You Need 

This is really about cost-effectiveness. If you learn well on your own by reading and watching videos, a free site like Khan Academy is a good choice. But if you need actual tutoring, or to be able to ask questions and get personalized answers from experts, a paid site that provides that kind of service may be a better option.

Tip 4: Set a Budget 

If you decide you want to go with a paid homework help website, set a budget first . The prices for sites vary wildly, and the cost to use them can add up quick. 

Tip 5: Read the Reviews

Finally, it’s always a good idea to read actual reviews written by the people using these homework sites. You’ll learn the good, the bad, and the ugly of what the users’ experiences have been. This is especially true if you intend to subscribe to a paid service. You’ll want to make sure that users think it’s worth the price overall!

Math can be hard. Sometimes you might feel overwhelmed and decide that you need to cheat on your next math test. Keep in mind, however, that there can be serious consequences to cheating if caught. Moreover, you're not actually learning anything by cheating. In fact, in the time it takes you to read about how to cheat, you could have probably studied for the same test! Nevertheless, there are several ways to cheat on a math test if you've decided that this is the way to go. Cheating has come a long way from simply looking over at another person's test!

Using Technology

Step 1 Program your calculator.

  • Lots of teachers now check the programs on calculators. So you could also put your notes under the "Vars" (Variables) button in one of the 10 Strings listed. Putting your cheat notes in different sections of the calculator will make it harder for your teacher to locate them if they search. [1] X Research source

Step 2 Send a text via your smartphone to a friend.

  • Response times are usually within 10 minutes. If you think you'll need a quicker turnaround time, get in touch with the service in advance to book the time.
  • "Text a Tutor" has an app that you can download to your Android phone. For iPhone and other smartphone users, you can still use the service even without an app.

Step 4 Use the PhotoMath app on your phone.

  • This app is especially good if your test requires you to show the steps in solving a question, as you have the option to see the different steps (rather than just the answer).
  • This app isn't just for cheating; it's also good for studying. You can use it as a learning tool and understand how to solve math problems step-by-step.

Step 5 Find the answer to the question online.

  • Keep in mind that using a cell phone is a very obvious way of cheating. There is an increased likelihood that you will be caught, as teachers and instructors are on the lookout for cell phones during the test. In many testing situations, you are required to put your phone away in your backpack or at the front of the room, meaning that this method won't work at all for you.

Using Other People

Step 1 Whisper or pass notes.

  • Find a friend in your class who be a good partner for this. This should ideally be someone who isn't very far from you (ideally next to you) and someone who knows the subject well.
  • Develop a tapping code. For example, tap 5 times for number 5. If it's a number like 2647, tap your pencil on the desk 2 times, pause for about 3 seconds, and then tap it 6 times and so on. If it's a multiple choice test using the alphabet, try coding A, B, C, D, E, as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, respectively.
  • You could also try different versions of this method that operate on the same principle. Instead of tapping, cough or sneeze to communicate an answer. You could also use sign language - especially fingers for methods - to communicate with a friend.

Step 3 Engage in misdirection.

Using Your Body and Surroundings

Step 1 Use a pen.

  • You could use a mechanical pencil.
  • You can also buy barrel pens. These are pens with a small window that click to rotate messages.
  • You could also purchase a special pen that has a roll of paper included in its side that you just roll out and roll back in.
  • You might want to pull out the notes while taking a bathroom break. There's less of a chance of getting caught this way!
  • Get rid of notes. Once you're finished with the notes, throw them away, preferably somewhere not close to the location where the test was. If you do throw them away in the classroom, shred the paper to cover your tracks.

Step 2 Use your shoes.

  • You could put cheat sheets or notes into your shoes and take them out as needed. Keep in mind, though, that notes are hard to remove from your shoes during a test without attracting attention. This method might work if you take a bathroom break, however.

Step 3 Write notes on your clothes.

  • You could also tape pieces of paper into a hood or hat liner.

Step 4 Write on your body.

  • You could also try wearing shorts or a skirt and writing the formulas just above the line that your shorts cover. Lift them slightly if you get stuck, and then cover them back. Instructors and teachers might be too embarrassed or worried about confronting you if you cheat this way because it would involve them having to investigate your body.

Step 5 Write on the desk.

  • Remember that all of test questions want you to show your work. Very few cheating methods will provide you with this information, so it is still recommended that you study! Thanks Helpful 0 Not Helpful 3
  • Cheating is wrong, but sometimes you got to do it. If you get caught just prepare for the embarrassment that comes with cheating and a fail. Parents will be disappointed and probably lose trust in you. If you are planning to cheat, don't tell anyone and don't be nervous as this could raise suspicions. Be wise.

Tips from our Readers

  • if you get revision sheets from your school and most questions on the test are similar to the ones in the sheet, take the sheets with you to the test. Hide in the inside pocket of a blazer. When you get the question paper, quickly staple the revision sheets on the back of the question paper so it looks like a part of the question paper. This only works if you wear a blazer or something with an inside pocket and get separate question paper and answer sheet.
  • Keep your phone hidden in your bra or socks (somewhere no one will see) and look through your test. If there are questions you can't answer, ask to go to the bathroom. Use your phone to find the answer. To remember the questions, write them down on your arm or a sheet of paper. Make sure that you have checked all the questions first so you don't have to go back to the bathroom many times as this is suspicious.
  • If your eraser has a paper covering, write your answers on the paper. During the exam, act like you were erasing and check the answers. You could also carry tissues with you to school and at home. Glue a sheet of paper to the tissue that has all of the answers written on it. During the test, take the tissue out and act like you're cleaning your nose when you're reading the answers.

To cheat on a math test, discreetly use your phone or sneak notes into the room. If you can subtly use your phone during your test, try texting a friend who’s good at math to ask them for an answer you’re stuck on. If you don’t know anyone who’s good at math, use a service like “Text a Tutor,” to get the answers to tricky questions. Alternatively, use an app like PhotoMath, which uses your phone’s camera to solve math problems for you. You can also smuggle notes with formulas on them into the room. Try hiding a note in your sock or in the barrel of an opaque pen. Another way to hide notes is to write them on masking tape and stick it on your skin under your clothes. Keep in mind that if you’re caught cheating, you could face severe consequences. For more tips, including how to program formulas and cheat notes into your calculator, read on!

How Teens Use Technology to Cheat in School

Why teens cheat, text messaging during tests, storing notes, copying and pasting, social media, homework apps and websites, talk to your teen.

  • Expectations and Consequences

When you were in school, teens who were cheating were likely looking at a neighbor’s paper or copying a friend’s homework. The most high-tech attempts to cheat may have involved a student who wrote the answers to a test on the cover of their notebook.

Cheating in today’s world has evolved, and unfortunately, become pervasive. Technology makes cheating all too tempting, common, and easy to pull off. Not only can kids use their phones to covertly communicate with each other, but they can also easily look up answers or get their work done on the Internet.

In one study, a whopping 35% of teens admit to using their smartphones to cheat on homework or tests. 65% of the same surveyed students also stated they have seen others use their phones to cheat in school. Other research has also pointed to widespread academic indiscretions among teens.

Sadly, academic dishonesty often is easily normalized among teens. Many of them may not even recognize that sharing answers, looking up facts online, consulting a friend, or using a homework app could constitute cheating. It may be a slippery slope as well, with kids fudging the honesty line a tiny bit here or there before beginning full-fledged cheating.

For those who are well aware that their behavior constitutes cheating, the academic pressure to succeed may outweigh the risk of getting caught. They may want to get into top colleges or earn scholarships for their grades. Some teens may feel that the best way to gain a competitive edge is by cheating.

Other students may just be looking for shortcuts. It may seem easier to cheat rather than look up the answers, figure things out in their heads, or study for a test. Plus, it can be rationalized that they are "studying" on their phone rather than actually cheating.

Teens with busy schedules may be especially tempted to cheat. The demands of sports, a part-time job , family commitments, or other after-school responsibilities can make academic dishonesty seem like a time-saving option.

Sometimes, there’s also a fairly low risk of getting caught. Some teachers rely on an honor system, and in some cases, technology has evolved faster than school policies. Many teachers lack the resources to detect academic dishonesty in the classroom. However, increasingly, there are programs and methods that let teachers scan student work for plagiarism.

Finally, some teens get confused about their family's values and may forget that learning is the goal of schooling rather than just the grades they get. They may assume that their parent would rather they cheat than get a bad grade—or they fear disappointing them. Plus, they see so many other kids cheating that it may start to feel expected.

It’s important to educate yourself about the various ways that today’s teens are cheating so you can be aware of the temptations your teen may face. Let's look at how teens are using phones and technology to cheat.

Texting is one of the fastest ways for students to get answers to test questions from other students in the room—it's become the modern equivalent of note passing. Teens hide their smartphones on their seats and text one another, looking down to view responses while the teacher isn't paying attention.

Teens often admit the practice is easy to get away with even when phones aren't allowed (provided the teacher isn't walking around the room to check for cellphones).

Some teens store notes for test time on their cell phones and access these notes during class. As with texting, this is done on the sly, hiding the phone from view.  The internet offers other unusual tips for cheating with notes, too.

For example, several sites guide teens to print their notes out in the nutrition information portion of a water bottle label, providing a downloadable template to do so. Teens replace the water or beverage bottle labels with their own for a nearly undetectable setup, especially in a large class. This, of course, only works if the teacher allows beverages during class.

Rather than conduct research to find sources, some students are copying and pasting material. They may plagiarize a report by trying to pass off a Wikipedia article as their own paper, for example.

Teachers may get wise to this type of plagiarism by doing a simple internet search of their own. Pasting a few sentences of a paper into a search engine can help teachers identify if the content was taken from a website.

A few websites offer complete research papers for free based on popular subjects or common books. Others allow students to purchase a paper. Then, a professional writer, or perhaps even another student, will complete the report for them.

Teachers may be able to detect this type of cheating when a student’s paper seems to be written in a different voice. A perfectly polished paper may indicate a ninth-grade student’s work isn’t their own. Teachers may also just be able to tell that the paper just doesn't sound like the student who turned it in.

Crowdsourced sites such as Homework Helper also provide their share of homework answers. Students simply ask a question and others chime in to give them the answers.

Teenagers use social media to help one another on tests, too. It only takes a second to capture a picture of an exam when the teacher isn’t looking.

That picture may then be shared with friends who want a sneak peek of the test before they take it. The photo may be uploaded to a special Facebook group or simply shared via text message. Then, other teens can look up the answers to the exam once they know the questions ahead of time.

While many tech-savvy cheating methods aren’t all that surprising, some methods require very little effort on the student’s part. Numerous free math apps such as Photomath allow a student to take a picture of the math problem. The app scans the problem and spits out the answers, even for complex algebra problems. That means students can quickly complete the homework without actually understanding the material.

Other apps, such as HWPic , send a picture of the problem to an actual tutor, who offers a step-by-step solution to the problem. While some students may use this to better understand their homework, others just copy down the answers, complete with the steps that justify the answer.

Websites such as Cymayth and Wolfram Alpha solve math problems on the fly—Wolfram can even handle college-level math problems. While the sites and apps state they are designed to help students figure out how to do the math, they are also used by students who would rather have the answers without the effort required to think them through on their own.

Other apps quickly translate foreign languages. Rather than have to decipher what a recording says or translate written words, apps can easily translate the information for the student.

The American Academy of Pediatrics encourages parents to talk to teens about cheating and their expectations for honesty, school, and communication. Many parents may have never had a serious talk with their child about cheating. It may not even come up unless their child gets caught cheating. Some parents may not think it’s necessary to discuss because they assume their child would never cheat. 

However, clearly, the statistics show that many kids do engage in academic discretions. So, don’t assume your child wouldn’t cheat. Often, "good kids" and "honest kids" make bad decisions. Make it clear to your teen that you value hard work and honesty.

Talk to your teen regularly about the dangers of cheating. Make it clear that cheaters tend not to get ahead in life.

Discuss the academic and social consequences of cheating, too. For example, your teen might get a zero or get kicked out of a class for cheating. Even worse, other people may not believe them when they tell the truth if they become known as dishonest or a cheater. It could also go on their transcripts, which could impair their academic future.

It’s important for your teen to understand that cheating—and heavy cell phone use—can take a toll on their mental health , as well. Additionally, studies make clear that poor mental health, particularly relating to self-image, stress levels, and academic engagement, makes kids more likely to indulge in academic dishonestly. So, be sure to consider the whole picture of why your child may be cheating or feel tempted to cheat.

A 2016 study found that cheaters actually cheat themselves out of happiness. Although they may think the advantage they gain by cheating will make them happier, research shows cheating causes people to feel worse.

Establish Clear Expectations and Consequences

Deciphering what constitutes cheating in today's world can be a little tricky. If your teen uses a homework app to get help, is that cheating? What if they use a website that translates Spanish into English? Also, note that different teachers have different expectations and will allow different levels of outside academic support.

Expectations

So, you may need to take it on a case-by-case basis to determine whether your teen's use of technology enhances or hinders their learning and/or is approved by their teacher. When in doubt, you can always ask the teacher directly if using technology for homework or other projects is acceptable.

To help prevent cheating, take a firm, clear stance so that your child understands your values and expectations. Also, make sure they have any needed supports in place so that they aren't tempted to cheat due to academic frustrations or challenges.

Tell your teen, ideally before an incident of academic dishonesty occurs, that you don’t condone cheating of any kind and you’d prefer a bad grade over dishonesty.

Stay involved in your teen’s education. Know what type of homework your teen is doing and be aware of the various ways your teen may be tempted to use their laptop or smartphone to cheat.

To encourage honesty in your child, help them develop a healthy moral compass by being an honest role model. If you cheat on your taxes or lie about your teen’s age to get into the movies for a cheaper price, you may send them the message that cheating is acceptable.

Consequences

If you do catch your teen cheating, take action . Just because your teen insists, “Everyone uses an app to get homework done,” don’t blindly believe it or let that give them a free pass. Instead, reiterate your expectations and provide substantive consequences. These may include removing phone privileges for a specified period of time. Sometimes the loss of privileges —such as your teen’s electronics—for 24 hours is enough to send a clear message.

Allow your teen to face consequences at school as well. If they get a zero on a test for cheating, don’t argue with the teacher. Instead, let your teen know that cheating has serious ramifications—and that they will not get away with this behavior.

However, do find out why your teen is cheating. Consider if they're over-scheduled or afraid they can’t keep up with their peers. Are they struggling to understand the material? Do they feel unhealthy pressure to excel? Ask questions to gain an understanding so you can help prevent cheating in the future and ensure they can succeed on their own.

It’s better for your teen to learn lessons about cheating now, rather than later in life. Dishonesty can have serious consequences. Cheating in college could get your teen expelled and cheating at a future job could get them fired or it could even lead to legal action. Cheating on a future partner could lead to the end of the relationship.

A Word From Verywell

Make sure your teen knows that honesty and focusing on learning rather than only on getting "good grades," at all costs, really is the best policy. Talk about honesty often and validate your teen’s feelings when they're frustrated with schoolwork—and the fact that some students who cheat seem to get ahead without getting caught. Assure them that ultimately, people who cheat truly are cheating themselves.

Why Students Cheat on Homework and How to Prevent It

One of the most frustrating aspects of teaching in today’s world is the cheating epidemic. There’s nothing more irritating than getting halfway through grading a large stack of papers only to realize some students cheated on the assignment. There’s really not much point in teachers grading work that has a high likelihood of having been copied or otherwise unethically completed. So. What is a teacher to do? We need to be able to assess students. Why do students cheat on homework, and how can we address it?

Like most new teachers, I learned the hard way over the course of many years of teaching that it is possible to reduce cheating on homework, if not completely prevent it. Here are six suggestions to keep your students honest and to keep yourself sane.

ASSIGN LESS HOMEWORK

One of the reasons students cheat on homework is because they are overwhelmed. I remember vividly what it felt like to be a high school student in honors classes with multiple extracurricular activities on my plate. Other teens have after school jobs to help support their families, and some don’t have a home environment that is conducive to studying.

While cheating is  never excusable under any circumstances, it does help to walk a mile in our students’ shoes. If they are consistently making the decision to cheat, it might be time to reduce the amount of homework we are assigning.

I used to give homework every night – especially to my advanced students. I wanted to push them. Instead, I stressed them out. They wanted so badly to be in the Top 10 at graduation that they would do whatever they needed to do in order to complete their assignments on time – even if that meant cheating.

When assigning homework, consider the at-home support, maturity, and outside-of-school commitments involved. Think about the kind of school and home balance you would want for your own children. Go with that.

PROVIDE CLASS TIME

Allowing students time in class to get started on their assignments seems to curb cheating to some extent. When students have class time, they are able to knock out part of the assignment, which leaves less to fret over later. Additionally, it gives them an opportunity to ask questions.

When students are confused while completing assignments at home, they often seek “help” from a friend instead of going in early the next morning to request guidance from the teacher. Often, completing a portion of a homework assignment in class gives students the confidence that they can do it successfully on their own. Plus, it provides the social aspect of learning that many students crave. Instead of fighting cheating outside of class , we can allow students to work in pairs or small groups  in class to learn from each other.

Plus, to prevent students from wanting to cheat on homework, we can extend the time we allow them to complete it. Maybe students would work better if they have multiple nights to choose among options on a choice board. Home schedules can be busy, so building in some flexibility to the timeline can help reduce pressure to finish work in a hurry.

GIVE MEANINGFUL WORK

If you find students cheat on homework, they probably lack the vision for how the work is beneficial. It’s important to consider the meaningfulness and valuable of the assignment from students’ perspectives. They need to see how it is relevant to them.

In my class, I’ve learned to assign work that cannot be copied. I’ve never had luck assigning worksheets as homework because even though worksheets have value, it’s generally not obvious to teenagers. It’s nearly impossible to catch cheating on worksheets that have “right or wrong” answers. That’s not to say I don’t use worksheets. I do! But. I use them as in-class station, competition, and practice activities, not homework.

So what are examples of more effective and meaningful types of homework to assign?

  • Ask students to complete a reading assignment and respond in writing .
  • Have students watch a video clip and answer an oral entrance question.
  • Require that students contribute to an online discussion post.
  • Assign them a reflection on the day’s lesson in the form of a short project, like a one-pager or a mind map.

As you can see, these options require unique, valuable responses, thereby reducing the opportunity for students to cheat on them. The more open-ended an assignment is, the more invested students need to be to complete it well.

DIFFERENTIATE

Part of giving meaningful work involves accounting for readiness levels. Whenever we can tier assignments or build in choice, the better. A huge cause of cheating is when work is either too easy (and students are bored) or too hard (and they are frustrated). Getting to know our students as learners can help us to provide meaningful differentiation options. Plus, we can ask them!

This is what you need to be able to demonstrate the ability to do. How would you like to show me you can do it?

REDUCE THE POINT VALUE

If you’re sincerely concerned about students cheating on assignments, consider reducing the point value. Reflect on your grading system.

Are homework grades carrying so much weight that students feel the need to cheat in order to maintain an A? In a standards-based system, will the assignment be a key determining factor in whether or not students are proficient with a skill?

Each teacher has to do what works for him or her. In my classroom, homework is worth the least amount out of any category. If I assign something for which I plan on giving completion credit, the point value is even less than it typically would be. Projects, essays, and formal assessments count for much more.

CREATE AN ETHICAL CULTURE

To some extent, this part is out of educators’ hands. Much of the ethical and moral training a student receives comes from home. Still, we can do our best to create a classroom culture in which we continually talk about integrity, responsibility, honor, and the benefits of working hard. What are some specific ways can we do this?

Building Community and Honestly

  • Talk to students about what it means to cheat on homework. Explain to them that there are different kinds. Many students are unaware, for instance, that the “divide and conquer (you do the first half, I’ll do the second half, and then we will trade answers)” is cheating.
  • As a class, develop expectations and consequences for students who decide to take short cuts.
  • Decorate your room with motivational quotes that relate to honesty and doing the right thing.
  • Discuss how making a poor decision doesn’t make you a bad person. It is an opportunity to grow.
  • Share with students that you care about them and their futures. The assignments you give them are intended to prepare them for success.
  • Offer them many different ways to seek help from you if and when they are confused.
  • Provide revision opportunities for homework assignments.
  • Explain that you partner with their parents and that guardians will be notified if cheating occurs.
  • Explore hypothetical situations.  What if you have a late night? Let’s pretend you don’t get home until after orchestra and Lego practices. You have three hours of homework to do. You know you can call your friend, Bob, who always has his homework done. How do you handle this situation?

EDUCATE ABOUT PLAGIARISM

Many students don’t realize that plagiarism applies to more than just essays. At the beginning of the school year, teachers have an energized group of students, fresh off of summer break. I’ve always found it’s easiest to motivate my students at this time. I capitalize on this opportunity by beginning with a plagiarism mini unit .

While much of the information we discuss is about writing, I always make sure my students know that homework can be plagiarized. Speeches can be plagiarized. Videos can be plagiarized. Anything can be plagiarized, and the repercussions for stealing someone else’s ideas (even in the form of a simple worksheet) are never worth the time saved by doing so.

In an ideal world, no one would cheat. However, teaching and learning in the 21st century is much different than it was fifty years ago. Cheating? It’s increased. Maybe because of the digital age… the differences in morals and values of our culture…  people are busier. Maybe because students don’t see how the school work they are completing relates to their lives.

No matter what the root cause, teachers need to be proactive. We need to know why students feel compelled to cheat on homework and what we can do to help them make learning for beneficial. Personally, I don’t advocate for completely eliminating homework with older students. To me, it has the potential to teach students many lessons both related to school and life. Still, the “right” answer to this issue will be different for each teacher, depending on her community, students, and culture.

You are so right about communicating the purpose of the assignment and giving students time in class to do homework. I also use an article of the week on plagiarism. I give students points for the learning – not the doing. It makes all the difference. I tell my students why they need to learn how to do “—” for high school or college or even in life experiences. Since, they get an A or F for the effort, my students are more motivated to give it a try. No effort and they sit in my class to work with me on the assignment. Showing me the effort to learn it — asking me questions about the assignment, getting help from a peer or me, helping a peer are all ways to get full credit for the homework- even if it’s not complete. I also choose one thing from each assignment for the test which is a motivator for learning the material – not just “doing it.” Also, no one is permitted to earn a D or F on a test. Any student earning an F or D on a test is then required to do a project over the weekend or at lunch or after school with me. All of this reinforces the idea – learning is what is the goal. Giving students options to show their learning is also important. Cheating is greatly reduced when the goal is to learn and not simply earn the grade.

Thanks for sharing your unique approaches, Sandra! Learning is definitely the goal, and getting students to own their learning is key.

Microsoft Edge Math Solver Arrives as a Math Homework Cheat Code

Microsoft Edge is debuting a feature called Math Solver, which allows users to send and image of a math problem and receive the answer and instructions.

Microsoft Edge Windows Microsoft Official

If you ever wanted your web browser to come with a kitchen sink, Microsoft Edge may eventually be for you. Microsoft continues to throw features at the browser, for better or for worse. I am not sure whether to file a new Math Solver for Edge under the “better” or “worse” pile.

Microsoft says Math Solver is coming now available for Microsoft Edge on the Chromium base. Debuting in preview, the new feature offers solutions to math problems. It is different to the in-built calculator because it is not simply designed to give and answer.

Instead, users can input math problems into Microsoft Edge and see step-by-step instructions on how to solve them. Microsoft explains the feature is designed to help students disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic:

“The impact of Covid-19 has forced students to use more digital learning tools and incorporate their web browser into everyday learning,” a new post to the Microsoft Edge blog reads .

“Students rely on the browser to help them find solutions to their studies, including math. To help these students on their learning journey, we are excited to announce that Microsoft Math Solver will be available as a preview feature starting with Microsoft Edge 91 stable.”

Math-Solver-Microsoft-Edge-Microsoft

Math Answers

Math Solver works by the student taking a photo of a math problem (hand-written or printed) and Edge will read the image and provide a solution. It will also show how the answer is built with instructions. Yes, Microsoft Edge will now do your math homework for you.

Users are also able to type problems, while other features include video tutorials , quizzes, and worksheets.

Microsoft says Math Solver is part of Edge 91, which is currently in preview across Beta, Dev, and Canary Insider channels. This version of the browser will become widely available following Build 2021 this week.

Users are also able to type problems, while other features include video tutorials, quizzes, and worksheets.

Students that need help with their math homework, can find research paper help for college from professionals working for specialized providers.

Tip of the day: Do you get flooded by notifications in Windows 10 from apps and want to disable them completely or just the notification sound ? Our tutorial shows you how to do this. As an alternative you can also configure Windows 10 Focus Assist (Do Not Disturb Mode) and set quiet hours.

Cheat Codes: Students Search For Shortcuts as Virtual Schooling Expands

An eighth grader looks up answers on a cell phone while he is taking an online quiz at home. The pandemic has forced many Oklahoma school districts to shift to part-time or full-time online learning this year.

cheat on math homework

Computer programmer Gradyn Wursten still updates a project he created to hack his high school homework.

As a sophomore, he used an old MacBook with a cracked screen and bulging battery to write the code that adds shortcuts to Edgenuity — an online education platform used by more than   3 million students .

Once installed, his program can skip videos and automatically fill practice questions with answers — progressing straight to quizzes and tests.

Instead of watching a 30-minute history lesson on the Iroquois, students can cut right to the quiz. And those answers are often easily found on the web.

The hacks make it possible to complete a course much faster, students say.

Wursten is more computer savvy than most, but his quest for shortcuts is typical. His program, developed from his home in Heber City, Utah, has been downloaded 40,000 times by students across the country. In the past month, he gained 2,000 new users, including more than 100 in Oklahoma.

And his tool is just one of many available to savvy students.

Entire test keys and quiz answers are posted to homework help websites. Smartphone apps take a photo of a question and produce the answer. Students connect on social media or text groups to share answers. There are even tricks to fake attendance in a Zoom class — demonstrated by a teen’s viral Tik Tok video.

Schools’ large-scale shift to virtual education amid COVID-19 is challenging the system of determining what students actually know and limiting educators’ ability to ensure academic integrity.

Cheating has always been an issue in schools, but there is little getting in the way for students today. Shared answers have become even more accessible as districts have adopted or expanded their use of popular online learning programs like Edgenuity, which delivers the same content to students across the country.

Many schools adopted such virtual programs in a matter of months to adapt to the ongoing public health crisis. Seventy percent of Oklahoma districts had a virtual option at the start of this school year, and 7.5% were exclusively online, according to a state Department of Education   survey .

But when students are not inside classrooms, it becomes more difficult to ensure they are actually learning, teachers say.

“Everything my kids are doing at home is a cheatable assignment, which makes that in-class time so incredibly valuable,” said Elanna Dobbs, who teaches English at Edmond Memorial High School.

Edmond is using a blended schedule, where students attend class some days and are virtual from home the rest of the week.

Dobbs, who has been teaching 19 years, said on virtual days, she relies on class discussions or assignments that task students with providing individual thoughts on what they’ve learned. In other words, the type of assignments they can’t just Google.

Many students aren’t getting any in-person class time, though.

Virtual charter schools are experiencing a surge of enrollment, a trend underway before the pandemic. These schools don’t have classrooms and the students learn mostly from home. Epic Charter Schools says it has 61,000 students enrolled — representing about 1 in 10 Oklahoma students. Other statewide virtual charter schools are experiencing increases.

In virtual charter schools, teachers provide less direct instruction than in a traditional school, with the curriculum program delivering most of the lessons. Parents are expected to fill in the gaps and oversee the learning process.

Research shows it doesn’t work very well. Students enrolled full-time in virtual charter schools learned an equivalent of 72 days fewer in reading and 180 days fewer in math than students in brick-and-mortar schools over one academic year, according to a   2015 study   by the Center for Research on Education Outcomes, a non-partisan research center at Stanford University.

Now, those same methods are being adopted by traditional school districts with the tens of thousands of Oklahoma students attending school from home.

And yet, critics — from parents to the president — have deemed online education inadequate. “Now that we have witnessed it on a large scale basis, and firsthand, Virtual Learning has proven to be TERRIBLE compared to In School, or On Campus, Learning,” President Donald Trump   tweeted July 10.

That month, in Norman, parents railed against a plan to use Edgenuity teachers for all students enrolling in the district’s virtual program. They spoke out at board meetings, and wrote a   letter to the district,   calling it “troubling” that Edgenuity was their only virtual option within the district.

“Our children deserve to have personal interactions with local teachers and classmates as part of their virtual school experience during this pandemic,” they wrote. They urged the district to, among other requests, provide an option for students to learn from Norman teachers, not from “an out-of-state, for-profit venture.”

The district relented and quickly developed an in-house virtual program, in addition to offering Edgenuity.

Relying on Teachers to Spot Discrepancies from Afar

Technology provides some cheating protections. Edgenuity features a locking browser, which restricts students from opening other tabs and programs while the learning platform is open. Epic and Oklahoma Virtual Charter Academy say their teachers can require exams to be proctored, where the student is monitored remotely through a webcam.

Watch videos related to this reporting on Oklahoma Watch’s website.

Students can bypass these protections. Often, it’s no more difficult than pulling up answers on a smartphone. A   2018 study by Pew Research Center   found 95% of teens have a smartphone, or at least access to one. Even kindergarten students know how to ask a smart speaker their homework questions.

Yet the companies providing the lessons say it’s up to users to provide the accountability and prevent cheating.

“Edgenuity trusts the integrity of teachers, administrations, and even students themselves, to ensure that students learn and succeed fairly,” wrote Deborah Rayow, Edgenuity’s Vice President of Instructional Design & Learning Science, in response to Oklahoma Watch’s questions.

Edgenuity, an Arizona-based online curriculum company, is being used by at least some virtual students in Norman, Union, Stillwater and other school districts.

Another program, Exact Path, is being used in more than 400 Oklahoma districts. The state Education Department used CARES Act funds to enter into a $2.6 million contract with parent company, Edmentum, to offer   Exact Path free to districts . Exact Path is an online learning tool that can be used for assessment and instruction in kindergarten through 12th grade.

Districts are, in some cases, using Exact Path even when school is in-person, to make it easier to pivot to distance learning because of an outbreak or need to quarantine.

Edmentum says because Exact Path adapts to individual students, it is difficult to use online social networks to find answers. And the company works with popular homework help sites like Quizlet and Brainly to “ensure our content is not posted on their sites,” a spokesperson said.

Exact Path also alerts teachers to unusual behavior — such as answering too quickly.

LIke Edgenuity, Edmentum emphasizes teachers’ responsibility to prevent cheating.

One of the most effective things teachers can do to prevent cheating is to design their own online curriculum, or at least supplement the platform’s assignments with their own, said Derald Glover, assistant executive director of the Oklahoma Association of School Administrators.

The bare minimum schools should be doing this year is placing a student on a virtual school platform and letting them go, he said.  Additional safeguards teachers can add are class discussions via Zoom, or having students submit videos of themselves explaining their answers.

Glover said he’s encouraging educators to treat online tools as a digital textbook, and design virtual courses themselves.

But that takes time.

“We think it’s going to take most of this year to realistically build really rich teacher-developed (virtual) courses,” Glover said.

At-Home Learning Assumes Parents Can Supervise

Parents are showing little patience to wait. The fervor over inadequate education at home is growing, and the lack of teacher interaction is one of the main reasons.

Norman schools bent to parental pressure and transitioned to in-person school in late September, despite no change in the Cleveland County’s color-coded coronavirus risk designation.

A group of Stillwater parents filed a lawsuit against the district to force a return to classrooms. The district of 6,300 students uses Edgenuity for students who chose full-time virtual learning.

Parent Nicole Wisel wishes her children’s school district, Cimarron Public Schools, would return to paper, pencils and textbooks instead of using Edgenuity.

“We hate it,” said Wisel, who has children in seventh, eighth and 11th grades. “Our teachers are being paid to be proctors, and that’s it. They don’t even know what these kids are doing.”

The prerecorded video lessons are too long, she says, and one of her children, who is autistic, says the instructors in the videos are “creepy.”

Chuck Anglin, Cimarron Public Schools’ superintendent, said he likes to use Edgenuity to offer extra classes in a normal year. Choosing it for virtual learning this year was making “the best of a bad situation,” he said.

He agrees that when kids are learning from home, the onus to prevent cheating is mostly on parents.

“We are not programmed for distance learning,” said Anglin, whose school district is located 12 miles west of Enid. “We are programmed to have the kids there, where we can see their faces, we can read their eyes, we can tell if they are still engaged. We can see if they’re looking around to see if anybody’s watching while they’ve got their phone in their lap.”

Researchers at the National Education Policy Center, a research center at the University of Colorado Boulder, found that relying on a computer program to teach and assess is one of the most detrimental aspects of online education.

The researchers found these programs actually impede and marginalize the teacher’s role. “Teachers may be unable to see how their students earned the designation of mastery of a goal because in some applications, the software, not the teacher, determines questions asked and the grades assigned,” they wrote in a   2019 report .

They also found that students would just look up answers on their computers — in a separate browser or on a smartphone — while taking assessments. The students quickly realize a computer is easy to trick compared to a human teacher.

This is at the heart of the cheating issue. Are students spending school days engaged in live lessons with a local teacher who is crafting curriculum to meet their needs? Or are they watching videos that explain content and clicking through multiple choice questions?

Katie Harris teaches senior English at Oklahoma Virtual Charter Academy, a statewide virtual school run by the national company K12, Inc. In her first year, students turned in a lot of plagiarized essays, she said. Now, she knows she has to rewrite her lessons, assignments, quizzes and tests every year.

“I say, ‘look, if I Google this exact writing prompt, I can find whole essays online. Don’t do that,’” she said.

K12 schools use their own virtual curriculum, not Edgenuity or Exact Path. A plagiarism detection service, Turnitin, automatically scans students’ work.

At Epic Charter Schools, the state’s largest virtual school, teachers can be responsible for students in all grades and subjects — and outside what they are certified to teach. Families can choose from more than a dozen learning platforms (Edgenuity and Exact Path among them), making it particularly difficult to supplement or build their own course.

To prevent cheating, Epic teachers proctor students’ benchmarking tests — in person, if possible, or via video conference, said Shelly Hickman, a spokeswoman for Epic. Teachers also can investigate if there are major discrepancies in a student’s scores on daily work compared to the proctored exams.

But Epic teachers are only   required to meet   with students face-to-face once every three weeks. Some teachers will meet more frequently, depending on the families’ needs.

Online Classes Create a ‘Psychological Distance’

Psychologists who study human behavior have found that most people will cheat — not a lot, but a little. Researcher Dan Ariely calls this the   “fudge factor.” 

Ariely, a professor at Duke University and author of the book   “The Honest Truth About Dishonesty,”   explains how and why cheating in online courses is easier than in a physical classroom.

“Gone are the quaint days of minutely lettered cheat sheets, formulas written on the underside of baseball cap bills, sweat-smeared key words on students’ palms. Now it’s just a student sitting alone at home, looking up answers online and simply filling them in,” he wrote in   this article   eight years ago, when virtual schools were still fairly new to Oklahoma.

He says the physical distance provided by online classes — distance from the teacher, the students, and the school building — creates a psychological distance that “allows people to further relax their moral standards.”

It’s also true that cheating exists on a continuum. Wursten, for instance, drew the line at automating quiz and test answers — the graded content.

Wursten, who graduated in 2019 and is now certified to work in IT, still adds features to his program — called Edgentweaks — as a “fun side project,” and because he wants to help other students avoid the drudgery he once faced.

Meanwhile, Edgenuity has patched his hacks in a virtual game of cat and mouse.

“I’ve found ways that I could automatically get the correct answers for things like tests and quizzes, but I did not actually write a tweak for it because I consider that cheating,” Wursten said. “I don’t intend to actually make a cheat tool.”

Even apps and websites created to assist students on their virtual learning path have been co-opted into cheat tools.

Brainly has a smartphone app that lets students scan homework or test questions, and answers pop up immediately. On Quizlet, another homework help website, entire test keys are posted and shared among students. Even pre-written essays are easily found, students say. Photomath, another app, produces not only the answer to a math problem, but all the steps needed for students to show their work.

Brainly and Quizlet have policies against cheating. But that’s unlikely to deter students, whether they are enrolled in a virtual school or are attending class face-to-face.

Mackenzie Snovel, who graduated from Owasso last year, said she found 90% of the answers for her senior English and history classes online — and even used Brainly to complete her final exam.

She said she didn’t see an issue with looking up answers because “they were classes I needed to graduate and none of that information I will need in my career.”

Technology is No Substitute

With students and teachers separated by distance, some of the academic integrity responsibility falls to the IT department.

They block websites known to be used for cheating. They may facilitate online exam proctoring, where students are monitored while taking a test through their webcam.

At Union Public Schools near Tulsa, the district has implemented several of these security measures but only on school-owned devices. Most students can easily access another device, though.

While Union is using Edgenuity for all middle and high school students who chose virtual this year, teachers will be adding in extra assignments to supplement the online tool, said Gart Morris, the district’s executive director of instructional technology.

“The curriculum in Edgenuity is limited,” he said. “Our own teachers are beefing up the curriculum to meet our standards.”

The district has about 2,700 middle and high school students who chose virtual learning this year. He believes the best tool to combat cheating is cementing the student to teacher relationships.

“It’s always a challenge to get one step ahead. There’s thousands of them and there’s not thousands of us,” Morris said. “You can look at technology in a way to try to prevent cheating but nothing works as well as a good solid relationship between students and an adult.”

How to Cheat on a Math Test: 9 Tricks and Hacks

How to Cheat on a Math Test: 9 Tricks and Hacks

cheating on math test

cheating on math test

Do you ever feel stressed out when it comes to a math test? Well, you are not alone. Math is a difficult subject for some people. It’s even harder for those who have been taught to cheat on tests. This article will discuss hacks, tips, and tricks to help you excel in your math classes.

7 Tricks How to Cheat on a Math Test

using phone to cheat

You don’t need to be a genius to do this; you only need a phone. A phone is a very useful tool, but it can be used as an aid in cheating. If you need to cheat on a math test, there are a few things that you should keep in mind.

cheat on math homework

The first thing to remember is the time of day you will be taking the test.

This will help you decide which phone to use and how long it will take for the test to arrive at your school.

Another thing you should remember when using a cell phone for cheating is how long it takes for the text message to get from one place to another. If you want to cheat on a math test, you need to know because it can affect the results of your answer if not done correctly.

2. Browse Answers

Another thing students do when they want to cheat on their exams is to go online and find solutions for problems they haven’t solved yet or don’t understand. Then they try to apply them on the test, and if this doesn’t work out, they start looking for more solutions on the web. 

After all, it is not easy to choose just one source from them! So they start looking through various websites where they can find all kinds of solutions for different types of problems and then choose one most suitable for their needs.

The main advantage of using online resources instead of solving problems yourself is that it saves time because there is no need to spend hours trying to figure out what each number or symbol means right away; instead, all you have to do is read through each question.

3. Use Calculator

using calculator to cheat

Use a calculator to do math questions that are hard for you. Such a trick works so well because it allows you to do calculations that would normally be impossible.

The problem with using calculators is that once you start doing the calculations, there are no more surprises for your teacher. 

More importantly, this means that if you cheat and make up answers, you will have nothing left for them to check when they ask for evidence from other students who also made up answers.

Cell phones have calculators, which can give you an idea of what kind of calculator is needed for each question. So bring out your phone when there’s a question that needs it, and punch away! Your phone will also help you calculate answers faster than normal calculators too! 

4. Find a Friend to Take over your Test

If you don’t have friends nearby and want to save time, then find a friend who doesn’t know anything about math and try taking over their test. They will get all the questions right because they won’t be familiar with them and hence won’t know how hard they are either. 

Or else, Buy a book about math problems and work through them with a friend before taking the real test. Many books contain math problems with solutions, and they are very helpful when you’re trying to prepare for the real thing.

Ask someone else in the class who has already taken the test for hints about what questions might be asked during their time section so that you can look over their notes and study them before class starts again. 

This way, you will save time by waiting until after the class is over before going over their materials later on so that you can study at home instead of being stuck in class all day long!

5. Using a Cheat Sheet

There are many ways to cheat on a math test. If you’re using a cheat sheet, you’ll need to memorize the answers before the test rather than use the sheet itself.

using cheat sheet

If your answer sheet is blank, you can copy the answers onto another sheet containing all the necessary information. Then, if someone asks what your answer is, tell them it’s on the back of your test or in your textbook.

It’s also possible to copy answers from another student’s test by accessing their test book and taking notes during class or at home.

However, here’s what you should know about using cheat sheets:

  • They can be dangerous. Cheat sheets are meant for one purpose and one purpose only: to help you solve problems quickly and accurately. If you use them for anything else, your score will suffer as a result (and so will your grade).
  • They are illegal in some states. In some states, including California and Florida, it is illegal for anyone other than the teacher to use a cheat sheet during testing or quizzes at school. In addition to being illegal, this also means that if your teacher catches you with one, they could punish you by giving you an F on the test or quiz without telling you first!

6. Use Applications 

Math tests are fairly difficult, especially if you have never taken a math class. However, there are ways that you can cheat on your math test.

The first trick is to use an app such as Khan Academy or Udemy. These sites offer free tutorials that will walk you through solving math problems.

You can also find other free resources online that can help you solve certain problems in addition to the ones provided by these websites.

Here are many different applications that you can use to cheat on your math test. We would recommend using one of the following applications:

1) Test Prep

3) Tutor.com

7. Memorize Everything in the Chapter by Heart

Math is a very important subject in life. It helps you to do your daily work and also helps you to earn money. Math is a science which can be learnt easily. The only thing that needs to be done is to memorize all the information related to the chapter.

how to memorize

You need not go through it again and again but memorize them, and then you will find yourself becoming an expert in this subject.

You should always try to learn as much as possible about math so that it becomes easy for you to understand any topic or topic related to math. If you know how much time it took for your teacher or professor to teach you something, then try learning that subject quickly so that it becomes easier for you to grasp it properly.

How to avoid being Caught Cheating in a Math’s Test

Cheating in maths tests can be devastating for those who get caught. The consequences of cheating can range from losing marks to getting into trouble and even being expelled. It is important to know how to avoid being caught cheating in maths tests, so here are some tips:

Know the Test Content and Format

If you need more clarification about what questions will be on the test, take some time to study them. Also, ensure you understand all the instructions before walking into the exam hall.

Avoid Taking Notes or Using any Calculator

 Using any device during an exam will surely raise suspicions among the invigilators. If you have to use a calculator, make sure that it has no buttons or other features that could distract you while taking notes.

Also, ensure that your calculator is completely blank when taking a test – this will ensure that there are no traces left by anyone else after the exam has been conducted.

Make Eye Contact with Invigilators

When someone asks for your attention during an exam and when they ask you to answer a question, look directly at them while responding (or answering) to avoid any possibility of hiding something under your shirt or blouse!

How Do I Stop Students From Copying Each Other’s Homework Assignments?

Five steps that worked for me.

Graphic of a test and student copying

My students, like students everywhere, are smart and funny and creative and wonderful in so many ways. Also like students everywhere, they constantly seem to be looking for shortcuts on their homework. One of the bus drivers told me last year that the kids openly ask her to turn the interior lights on so they can finish copying homework before they get to school! Sigh. At least they’re motivated enough to copy, right?

This year, I made it a major goal to stop students from cheating. I put this five-step process in place, and it really cut down on the homework copying in my classroom. Here it is. 

Step 1: Check the quality of your assignments.

First of all, it’s worth taking a close look at the kind of homework you assign. If you do a lot of worksheets, you might find those work better for in-class activities. Instead, try focusing homework on in-depth writing assignments and individual written responses.

If you’re a math teacher, having kids respond in writing about how they solved a problem always works, as does having them write their own problems or exemplars for what they’ve been learning. Anything that requires student-generated content is automatically going to be harder to copy.

Step 2: Check the quantity.

Of course, this creates a lot more grading than worksheets, which led me to reflect on the amount of homework I assigned. At first, I found myself overwhelmed. I had to wonder if this was how my students felt when they looked at a night’s homework load. If there had been someone whose grading I could have copied, I probably would have done it!

The result? I assigned a lot less homework as the year went on. Put your homework to this test: If it’s not worth your time to grade carefully, it’s not worth the students’ time to do it.

Step 3: Explain the changes.

Once you’ve started assigning less homework, you’ll want to make your reasons explicit to your students. “I’m assigning less homework because I don’t want to waste your time. That means that anything I do assign is really important, and it’s important for you to actually do it on your own.” This speech went a long way with many of my students, but I had another trick up my sleeve.

Step 4: Allow time to learn and make mistakes.

You might also want to try a few get-out-of-jail-free cards when it comes to homework. My middle schoolers are still in the process of learning how to budget their time and stay organized, and sometimes they make mistakes. I gave each kid three one-day extensions that they could use over the course of the year to avoid a penalty for late homework.

There were certain assignments on which these could not be used, like rough drafts we needed to edit or group projects. It lowered the general stress level and set a culture of respect and accountability that encouraged my kids to plan ahead. For the naysayers who say, “The real world won’t give them extensions,” I would respectfully offer my disagreement. What? You’ve never posted your grades after the deadline?

Step 5: Bring the pain.

Although this cut down on copying substantially, kids will always test your limits. That’s when you move on to the final step. It works like this: Read every word of every assignment. Make sure you grade an entire class at once so you’ll know if a phrase or a creatively spelled word seems familiar, and then hunt back through 35 other papers until you find the one it’s copied from. It is important that you identify when students cheat and that your justice is swift and merciless.

I had an escalating system of consequences for cheating. First time, you split the grade. If the assignment gets a 90, each person gets a 45. Second time, each person gets a zero and a lunch detention. Third time, it’s a phone call home in addition to a zero and an after-school detention. Not a single kid made it to the third offense. They have to believe that you’re documenting this and you’ll follow through. Let them see you putting their names in your file so they know you know what offense they’re on. It is a logistical pain, but it’s effective.

So did my kids ace the standardized test because they had done their homework all year? Not to brag, but their writing scores were pretty high. And I don’t think they missed out on many valuable educational experiences when I stopped assigning worksheets. After all, they’d have just copied them anyway!

How To Cheat On A Math Exam

Best apps/websites for cheating on a math exam.

I learn something new every day. Sometimes I wish I could unlearn some of these things. For example, I was just chatting to one of the guys in the next bay who told me that cheating has risen to unprecedented levels at high schools and universities.

It turns out that my friend’s wife runs a business, and my friend was talking to one of the young lads who is a student and works there part time. They were chatting about math, and this lad whipped out his iPhone and showed my friend an app that he employs to do his math problems. All he has to do is point the iPhone’s camera at a math problem, and the app shows the result along with detailed step-by-step instructions. I don’t know which app it was, but this free Photomath app would certainly fit the bill.

Photomath instructions.

On further questioning, my friend discovered that, although the lad purported to be proud of getting high scores on his math homework, in reality he didn’t have a clue when it actually came to understanding and solving math problems himself.

Photomath and Quizlet

I just performed a Google search for “Best apps for cheating,” and I was horrified at the result. It turns out that students across the country are using the Internet and apps like Photomath and Quizlet to share answers to quizzes, tests, and assignments. This is facilitated by the fact that teachers and lecturers are also using the Internet to provide them with the quizzes, tests, and assignments that they give to their students.

Now, this not to say that that there is anything wrong with apps like Photomath and Quizlet per se. I can see that they can be valuable resources for helping people to understand things. The problem is when the students just use them to generate, copy, and paste the answers, which ends up with them looking like geniuses on paper and drongos in the real world.

When I was at high school, the only tool at our disposal was a book of logarithmic tables, and the teachers encouraged us to use it. There weren’t any electronic pocket calculators in those days, but if there had been, I very much doubt we would have been allowed to use one.

I like to feel that there was also a sense of right and wrong back in those days, although I may be deluding myself (welcome to Max’s world, where the flowers are brighter, the butterflies are bigger, the birds sing sweeter, and the beer runs plentiful and cold). I remember that one of my friends once persuaded a girl to let him copy her physics homework. Unfortunately, he was a bit dim and he copied it word-for-word, so he was immediately found out.

The headmaster called my friend’s parents in for a meeting, which boded no good for my chum. Furthermore, at the following morning’s assembly, the headmaster announced that someone had been caught cheating, and that such a thing was not to be tolerated. He named no names, but everyone knew the identity of the culprit. The shame was such that no one wanted anything like that to happen to them.

How things have changed. These days, it seems that young people are proud of their cheating skills and are happy to brag about them so long as the person to whom they are bragging doesn’t have any jurisdiction over them.

I’m also informed by people who are in the know (or, at least, who tell me they are in the know), that another problem is the teachers and the schools themselves. Since these people and institutions are rewarded for passing students and pushing them through the system, there’s a tendency to “turn a blind eye” to what’s going on.

The result is to pull society down in multiple ways. The most obvious consequence is that we end up with a generation of young people who look good on paper, but who don’t actually have a clue. There’s also the fact that the kids who do the work without cheating stand a good chance of being “tarred with the same brush.” Also worrying to me is that we end up with a cohort of characters who think nothing of cheating in tests, which means they will think little of being duplicitous and dishonest in other ways, not realizing that they end up cheating themselves and those around them.

I fear this topic is making me both angry and sad. What do you think? Am I painting too glum a picture, or are things even worse than I think?

I must have gone to a “progressive” school.  We had slide rules 🙂

I do remember log tables.  I also remember a joke my pre-calculus teacher told about the “inexact sciences” like chemistry and physics:

A chemist needs to multiply 2 times 3.  He pulls out his log table and says: “OK, here’s the log of 2… log of 3… add them… take the anti-log… answer is 5.99…  well, call it 6.”

@John: “…I must have gone to a “progressive” school.  We had slide rules…”

You Californian Hippy, you 🙂    We were taught how to use slide rules, but we didn’t use them as a rule (see what I just did LOL)

' src=

I was in college when electronic calculators became available. We all had slide rules and were allowed and encouraged to use them on tests but there was great debate among the professors as to whether the newfangled calculators should be allowed. The result was that for several years, calculators were forbidden in many exams but gradually the calculators took over.

I have a friend who teaches at the university here. She has her students put their phones on her desk during exams because there’s been so much cheating using the phones.

I think that a small portable cell phone jammer would be useful for preventing cheating during exams. Unfortunately, last I heard it was illegal to make such a thing. Another alternative is to hold exams in shielded rooms but that gets expensive.

It’s sad that cheating has become so common and one thing that’s really sad is that the students are cheating themselves out of learning.

@Elizabeth: “…It’s sad that cheating has become so common and one thing that’s really sad is that the students are cheating themselves out of learning…”

They are cheating themselves, their fellow students, their educational institution, their parents, and society as a whole (said Max, crossly)

@Elizabeth: “…She has her students put their phones on her desk during exams because there’s been so much cheating using the phones…”

It’s a sad state of affairs

An article that appeared last fall in the student paper about the problem.

Technology is making it easy to cheat

This includes a reference to cheating in a civil engineering class. Definitely NOT a place we want to see cheating.

' src=

Some of it is cultural – a story from the 1980’s, from a teacher who taught in Spain:

She caught a student cheating on a math test, called in his parents, and the parents started reminiscing about how they used cheat!

Maybe some of the cause is equating grades with learning – some cultures (including some Asian cultures which I might have some slight acquaintance with) seem to value knowledge and skills ONLY if they have a tangible result, such as a grade (only A’s are acceptable), certificate (e.g. passing CM/ABRSM/etc exam in music), or result in a higher salary.  So tinkering youngsters are NOT encouraged….

While wooden poles may have lower load-bearing capacity than those used in Turkey, they meet safety requirements for specific voltage and environmental conditions.

How about Cheating on Homework with Special Apps?

Yup (ex-mathcrunch).

Cheating on homework is much easier and popular than cheating on in-class assignments. The teacher cannot control the actions of his/her students outside the class. It provides students with the certain benefits. In the age of modern technologies, it is simple to learn how to cheat on homework of any complexity and urgency. No matter what topic a student should cover, the world of internet will offer a quick solution.

The best way to explain how to cheat on homework is by offering a professional online writing & editing services established by the top UK & US writers who wish to help students with their performance. Just say " I need help on my homework ," and get expert assistance with your assignments.

If you are reading this article, you wonder how to cheat on homework . The reasons may be different:

  • A great number of writing assignments
  • Difficult tasks
  • Lack of time
  • Absence of the required sources

Modern students have more tasks than their parents and grandparents used to have ages ago. The research has proved that an hour-1,5 hour is good when it comes to after-class writing. Not many schools & colleges support that idea, and students around the world suffer having an incredible amount of tricky assignments and too much homework to accomplish in one night: writing film reviews , concert report , lab reports , research papers, case studies, math problems, etc.

The primary thing is to explore how to cheat on your homework using old methods.

To begin with, read about the traditional ways to cheat!

  • Make friends with an older guy who is smart and competent to write a short essay twice per week to help a younger friend who would give a cookie to him.
  • Paraphrasing . Discover the answer in the shape of long response/essay/research paper on the web and rewrite the full work making it 100% original. Note that it is important to change the structure of the text as replacing the words with synonyms will not make it 100% unique.
  • Focus on one brief statement to share in class. Literature class students have to retell the story in front of the class to prove they have read the assigned material. Some volunteers decide to answer before others. Those witty guys who raise their hands initially look super smart to their teachers. While they start answering from the easy part, the teacher loses his interest, thinking a student knows the whole thing and starts ‘attacking’ other slowpokes.
  • Download the related film or watch a video online. Even if the video interpretation is a bit different from the book plot, it is better than having no idea of what to say. Some of the history movies are good – why should you waste your time on reading?
  • Share the homework with friends: break the long reading material into several blocks and decide which one of you will read particular parts to catch up with the deadline and focus on homework . Help each other in class.
  • Get together with the team and brainstorm! I t is an excellent practice, which will save a person many times in the future because modern business environment requires brainstorming in many situations.
  • Read the summary of the chapter without going into details – focus on keywords.
  • Copy the answers from another student. The one has to be lucky to copy the correct answers, make it properly, and stay undetected by the strict teacher.

If it seems complicated, move to the simpler methods available thanks to the rapid technological progress.

Services like QuickMath help to answer, “how to cheat on math homework?” They are free of charge, and students may try them. They do not guarantee 100% accurate answers all the time, but it is better than having no response by the due date.

Why Is It Important to Conduct an Internet Research? Being at this website for homework means you know the ways to do a search engine search. Highlight the necessary keywords while reading the problem description, place them on a separate piece of paper, and insert into the Google search field. In case there is a specific question with the answer options “yes”/”no,” enter the double quotes around the search query. Many students face the same math problem every day. This way, a student will find several versions of the answer, and the most common one is a correct solution. Example of how to cheat on my math lab homework using Internet search:

“How long does it take for an automobile driving at a speed of 60.0 miles/hour to pass 200 feet?”

Type the question the way it appears in a prompt. Add some keywords if necessary. An answer to the question of this type will show up in a few seconds at one of the student forums or websites like Quora where users tend to ask each other different questions.

Expert Advice “Copy & paste the problem’s prompt into a Google search field with the double quotes. If you skip that step, the engine will come up with thousands or even millions of possible answers, and part of them will not be correct. Why should a student risk? Besides, without specifying the question with the help f double quotes, a user risks obtaining a plenty of spam websites offering vehicles for sale, rent, related videos, and more garbage.” Brandon Johnson, a university tutor and online essay/resume writer at JustDoMyHomework.

Cheating on homework becomes easy when some special mobile applications step in. Do not hope that these smart assistants will complete a statistical report or research paper in history for you. These tools help to make the process faster and simpler by adding fun plus extra options. Learn here  how to get homework done fast . 

Students who prefer using iPhones will enjoy iHomework. It helps to understand how to cheat on homework by keeping track of the assignments by slicing & dicing in many different ways. The software categorizes the tasks by the exact deadline. It prevents a person from postponing – choose to classify by week, month, or course. Students may link the reading texts to the target tasks. It is the way to avoid digging through a tone of papers to get the required data.

Another opportunity is to tick the locations of different courses. This feature will prevent the student from getting lost in case a college or university has a big campus and overall territory. Thanks to the sync with iCloud, students who use Apple devices may access any learning materials they stored at any time and any moment.

How to cheat on MyMathLab online homework? The software was created to provide an effective homework help for college students who experience problems with high math, algebra, geometry, etc. The best thing about it is the availability of live online tutors 24/7. An app owner has to submit a problem he/she cannot solve alone. Go to the app’s drop-down menu, enter any extra notes, and take a photo of the case study using a device's native camera. Take a clear, high-resolution photo. In something like a couple of fo minutes, the assigned tutor will guide a student through the step-by-step solution and provide valuable tips for the future.

It is an educating service, which makes it possible to take the photos of the assignment prompts and submit to the online tutors.

How to Cheat on Homework (explaining above method)

Almost everybody asks themselves, “How do I cheat on my homework?” at some point.

Most people go through this throughout their academic careers. We’ve all cheated on our homework using conventional approaches.

Here are a few of the most popular conventional homework cheating strategies that almost every cheater has used at some stage.

collaborating on doing homework:

Divide the chapters between your friends if you need to get through some reading, such as history. You can each memorize a piece of information and share it with others, or you can simply show it to the class. You won’t have to worry about the question if you make sure your classmate answers it during the lesson!

Paraphrasing: 

Find the solution paper on the internet and rewrite the homework entirely to make it 100 percent original. It is necessary to adjust the structure of the text because simply substituting synonyms will not make it 100% original And some students may struggle to efficiently follow the proper structure of the homework text due to a lack of writing skills. In this case, don’t get panic, because there is a quick and easy solution to this. The solution is utilizing a paraphrasing tool that quickly paraphrases the text by altering its structure, tone, and words/phrases.

Rather than reading a long book, watch a movie or watch a video:

Watching a book-based film is a great way to break up from a long boring book on which you have to do homework.

In general, movies provide a good picture of the concept and characters, and Wikipedia also assists students in gathering knowledge online.

Make a deliberate error in any of the responses.

Teachers are aware of their students’ results. They are well-versed in your strengths and weaknesses in each subject. When you have all of your answers right, they will tell if you cheated on your homework. Getting any responses incorrect is the only way to escape suspicion.

Recognize the risks of plagiarism. Taking someone’s material is against the rules in every school. and can land you in serious trouble–we’re talking automatic failure in most classes and subjects, as well as the possibility of expulsion from school. It’s probably best if you just make some change and write it.

Copying the responses of other students:

Copying responses from a friend who knows how to do the homework is the simplest and fastest way to cheat. If you’re working on a worksheet of multiple choice answers or short answers, or by doing the same math problems, Finding someone who did them correctly and getting the answers safely is the only way to get the correct answers.

Apps for cheating

Some apps in the field of educational technology may be becoming too intelligent. More and more applications are providing on-demand homework support to students, who can quickly repurpose the learning resources to get assistance and help with their homework. Here are some apps that can help you with your homework. PhotoMath, iHomework, Google Apps for Education , Homework Helper, etc.

Friendship with older men is an excellent way to enlist their assistance.

You’ve definitely found more ways to cheat on your assignments than any of these, but these are the most popular conventional methods. I hope it help to you.

Opinion An ‘education legend’ has created an AI that will change your mind about AI

cheat on math homework

Remember when people were furious about kids using ChatGPT to cheat on their homework? If I may be so bold as to psychoanalyze the United States of America, it’s possible the hysteria was not entirely about homework but also the speed with which artificial intelligence was infiltrating our daily lives. How else do you explain so many people defending the sanctity of a thing none of them ever wanted to do?

Researchers at Stanford University have since found that the cheating rampage was more of an academic satanic panic . Among high school students, cheating was flat or down last year. But at the time, Sal Khan was among the furious. Khan is the founder of Khan Academy — the nonprofit online educational empire with more than 160 million registered users in more than 190 countries. He’s also a hood ornament for a bunch of American ideals. Born into a poor Bengali Muslim family in Louisiana, Khan worked his way through MIT and Harvard Business School. He started making math videos to tutor his cousin, which eventually turned into an early YouTube channel that became the basis of Khan Academy. Multiply Lin-Manuel Miranda by Habitat for Humanity and you get some sense of his sincerity and virtue.

But Khan’s anger about cheating wasn’t entirely righteous, either. Unknown to the world, he had signed a nondisclosure agreement with OpenAI and had been working for months to figure out how Khan Academy could use generative artificial intelligence, even securing beta access to GPT-4 for 50 of his teachers, designers and engineers at a time when most of OpenAI’s own employees couldn’t get log-ins. “Half our organization was like, ‘This is a game changer,’” says Khan. “Everything that we’ve ever been doing has been trying to scale personalization, tutoring, engagement with students. This can do that. And then the other half of the organization said, ‘Hold on a second.’”

The cheating panic created the cover Khan needed to hammer away at ChatGPT, an imperfect tool that wasn’t built for education and had no real guardrails at the time. GPT-4 was bad at math. It made up facts. No one could be certain what kind of bias was in the training data or the types of conversations it might allow. So Khan turned the concerns into a mission: Fix it.

Josh Tyrangiel: A ‘Mothra vs. Godzilla’ battle is looming over AI

His team drilled down on GPT’s math issues and discovered that it was decent at computation but easily bullied. If a user told GPT that 5 + 7 = 90, it would shrug and agree. This was largely because OpenAI’s original idea of a helpful assistant was one that’s always subservient — which makes a lot of sense when you have cutting-edge tech, and you don’t want to freak out your users. But in an educational context, second-guessing humans is kind of the point.

cheat on math homework

By infusing GPT with its own database of lesson plans, essays and sample problems, Khan Academy improved accuracy and reduced hallucinations. The full archive of Khan Academy math problems is now baked into GPT — “Our service to the broader AI community,” says Khan. But that still left a ton of work to do around interactivity. Khan and a small team provided hundreds of hours of feedback, gently retraining GPT to be less of a know-it-all that spits out answers, and more of a patient and knowledgeable companion. Like, say, Sal Khan.

The result is Khanmigo, a safe and accurate tutor, built atop ChatGPT, that works at the skill level of its users — and never coughs up answers. Khanmigo is the best model we have for how to develop and implement AI for the public good. It’s also the first AI software I’m excited for my kids to use.

That blurbable sentence would mean more if the current state of educational software weren’t so atrocious. Parents who’ve ever tried to help their kids with homework know the pain — janky interfaces, impoverished user experiences, word problems that appear to have been translated from another language. Imagine that Microsoft’s Clippy opened a schoolhouse on AOL and you have some idea.

I told the Khanmigo bot I was rusty at algebra (true!), and it presented me with sample problems that escalated in complexity. The focus was entirely on getting the steps in the process right. When I took a poor guess, it said, “Hmm, not quite. Remember, we want to isolate Z on one side of the equation. To do this, we should first try to get rid of the ‘+8’ on the left side. What operation could we use to do that?” The voice was Socratic, enthusiastic but firm — until my 15-year-old daughter kicked me off and told Khanmigo to speak more like a teenager. “Okay, fam, let’s grind through these next problems.” She did not cringe, which might be Khanmigo’s greatest achievement.

After productive spins through geology and chemistry, I put Khanmigo on the cultural tightrope and asked it to dance: “Can you tell me about racial passing in early 20th-century America?” The bot didn’t freak out or inject any biases that I could detect. But it wasn’t dry, either: “Racial passing is when a person classified as a member of one racial group is accepted or perceived as a member of another. In American history, this often involved a person of African descent being perceived as White. Why do you think someone might choose to pass as a different race? What could be some benefits or drawbacks of this?” It guided me through a complicated and lesser-known historical phenomenon with valuable context. As we conversed, Khanmigo noted that passing reflected extreme societal inequity, which is why the phenomenon also has roots in Australia, South Africa and India.

Making Khanmigo elegant and useful is only half the challenge. Great software fails every day because its creators don’t know how to get it in the hands of customers. Khan Academy’s videos and tutoring platform are already used by more than 500 public school districts, but Khanmigo, like most AI products, devours expensive computing power. It’s now available to individuals for $4 a month, which covers Khan Academy’s costs. But to make it sustainable, Khan needs to sell to the whales of the education market.

Luckily, years of being an American paragon have left Khan extremely wired into power. Through former Florida governor Jeb Bush’s Foundation for Excellence in Education , he asked to connect with Indiana Secretary of Education Katie Jenner . Jenner, who is blond and exuberant and must get compared to Leslie Knope 10 times a day, was thrilled to talk to Khan. “Education legend!” Jenner says, laughing at her own dorkiness.

Jenner was already interested in AI but raised all the concerns you’d expect from someone responsible for about 1 million students. Khan talked her through the guardrails — Khanmigo keeps transcripts of every student interaction so teachers can evaluate progress and monitor all the inventive ways an eighth grader might interact with a bot. He also suggested she speak with the superintendent in the city of Hobart (population: 30,000), which had volunteered for Khanmigo beta testing. “So I call Peggy Buffington in Hobart,” says Jenner, “and the first thing out of her mouth is like, ‘Oh my gosh, we love Khanmigo — is the state gonna pay for it?’”

Buffington knew students would like Khanmigo; she’d previously observed kids too shy to ask classroom questions flourishing in judgment-free software environments. What surprised her was how quickly teachers jumped aboard. “We [showed] them how we might use Khanmigo as a teaching assistant, and I’m telling you, it just took off,” says Buffington. Aside from saving hours on lesson planning and problem variation, it helped unclog a gnarly classroom paradox. “We have high-performing students in the top quartile, but many, many times we’re teaching to the middle of a class because we’re not sure if those students get it,” says Buffington. “But if I know some students have mastery, I can take them to another concept on Khanmigo. I can do the same with the lower group. You can differentiate like you’ve never done before, and it’s beautiful.”

After more research, Jenner got the state to create the $2 million AI-Powered Platform Pilot Grant . “I didn’t name the thing,” she says, “but we somehow got it done before this school year, and it serves 112 schools and 45,000 students.” Khanmigo doesn’t have an Indiana monopoly; grant recipients were able to choose from five different AI tutoring products, with Khanmigo in use by about 20,000 students. Early data shows huge engagement from both students and teachers.

For Khan, the new era is bittersweet. He has created a model for responsible AI — a chain that requires AI software makers to be humble and collaborative; subject experts to do rigorous testing and customization; and government entities to be responsible but open-minded. But in transitioning his life’s work to AI, he’s confronting his own obsolescence. “It’s like, I used to have dreams!” Khan says. “I spent a lot of the last 17 years making videos, I’ve made like seven or 8,000 videos at this point. And a little part of me — maybe a big part of me — dreamt that this would be one of my legacies. You know, even in 100 years, somebody’s going to be learning calculus from Sal. Like, how cool is that?” Khanmigo will probably be able to generate videos customized for any lesson in the next few years. Sal Khan will have to content himself with being a friendly ghost in a very useful machine.
