It’s worth mentioning this mainly applies in an academic setting. Typically, people don’t care if you copied the code online because there’s no point in re-inventing the wheel.
Also, for the type of questions on the assignments, it’s difficult to find a unique solution because they limit what you can or can’t use in your answer. It then becomes plausible for people to have a solution matching the Chegg answer.
It might not be easy for first time programmers but why do you need chegg for it. The hardest questions on the midterms are what happens when you type this weird random thing into python, just open python and put it in if you really want.
If you’re a beginner coder on top of having Aziz, then it’s an incredibly bad time. I think I got like a C+ in 1120, then got an A+ in 1121 after sitting down and actually learning to code over the summer.
Hey, I’m in the ITI class and have been finding it pretty difficult since it’s my first time coding and I have Aziz (nuff said LOL) and I’m still not cheating. I was wondering are the TA office hours for all classes? Because in my class, we dont even have TAs to begin with I’m pretty sure. Do you have more info on the study group, engineering mentor centre and the student volunteer? I never knew this was all going on to be honest and have been struggling in silence d*pressed because my first year of university is online :)) anyway if anyone could drop the links/give more info on any of these it would be much appreciated!
I disagree, I think you’re perfect for CS, SEG, ELG, CEG. It’s standard in the industry to use the resources at your disposal, i.e, copying existing solutions.
Furthermore, it’s understandable for people doing programming for the first time to struggle in such a course. Maybe instead of judging them, you could help them with the concepts they’re struggling with.
Ur good, Literally everyone tries to find past exams and stuff. If a lazy professor chooses to use the same exams every year, then they should expect students to get past exams. I doubt he would go out of his way to monitor who downloaded stuff on his website cuz like I said, literally 90% of people in uni try to get past exams/assignments
most Chegg tutors are students or new grads and they can make mistakes.
Case in point my CSI 2110 assignments.
Full disclosure I don’t use Chegg to cheat, I look at the answers after the assignment’s finished out of pure curiosity, for every assignment in this course the Chegg answers have been completely wrong, or don’t even answer the question in the first place.
Would seem like a massive breach of privacy to give out financial information; it’s considered protected by most businesses and is typically hidden in every single investigation outside of legal ones. Considering it’s an honour code and academic integrity investigation it seems like a terrible practice on Chegg’s part and a terrible business model to freely distribute that information. But that’s just my speculation.
My guess would be that the professor is trying to scare students into confessing. Later in the email she says that the only option students have is to email in and confess so they can receive a 0 on the specific assignment rather than the course. I’ve TA’d for enough professors who have said they do this sort of approach mostly as an intimidation tactic, although I don’t know whether that’s her approach or not.
If she really want to scare them, she should just outright warn them of the maximum penalty for cheating. That’s what I got from the first lecture I had with her in my first year. Considering as they progress through compsci, the load would just get more complicated as it builds from the knowelege you learnt from the prereq courses, and there are way less forgiving profs that would outright pursue a case against the student for committing academic fraud that would most liklely lead to the student’s expulsion from the program.
Is there not an email login process? I mean regardless, you should really research the platform’s reliability before posting an assignment on it. One google search is all you’d need to know to stay away.
