| Jan 5, 2016 at 22:38 | comment | added | Ian Lewis | @OldBunny2800 Hi. No, I haven't asked. Do you think it would help someone if I posed the question there? | |
| Jan 5, 2016 at 0:51 | comment | added | AAM111 | @IanLewis kind of off topic, but have you asked on Parenting.SE how to stop that plagarism? | |
| Nov 5, 2015 at 20:30 | comment | added | smci | Your friend will be punished too, unless he claims he only gave you the homework to submit, but not look at or copy, which frankly sounds quite fishy to me (in itself an academic code violation?), and he might get punished anyway. So when he advises "turning myself in is the only way to earn back his respect", is he ok with being investigated and likely being punished too? Did you talk through the consequences of that with him? | |
| Jun 30, 2014 at 14:19 | comment | added | phresnel | @horsehair: Every test is only a random sample of your knowledge, and not a proof thereof. A bad test isn't a proof that you are bad, and a good test is not a proof that you are good. Even more, the whole school life is not a test of your potential; a lot of ppl just failed at school because it's not their natural kind of learning; personally, I failed a lot, until I realised (myself, not by teachers) I am autodidact. If at all, school is more a lesson in empathy wrt. teachers and memorizing stuff, but not in intelligence. But I am going to far for just a comment :P | |
| Jun 30, 2014 at 8:52 | comment | added | Ian Lewis | I am going to show this post to my son. He is 14 and consistently cuts and pastes into his homework. He knows very well, from us, that plagiarising will only end up with him flipping burgers in some god forsaken burger store somewhere. Bad idea. | |

| Jun 28, 2014 at 23:05 | comment | added | mikeserv | I suspect the worst of eventualities has already come to pass - you broke and subsequently lost the trust of a good friend. Regaining that will likely not be as simple as merely coming clean to the powers that be. That is a step in the right direction, of course, but its a long road to haul, after all. | |

| Jun 28, 2014 at 10:23 | comment | added | Thomas | @earthling Well, it makes sense, since the origin of the symbol is Spanish. | |
| Jun 28, 2014 at 9:43 | comment | added | earthling | @Thomas The following are some countries which use the $ symbol: HK, Canada, Singapore, AU, US, NZ, (maybe others) and some like Chile use the $ sign even when they refer to pesos (I know, confusing). | |

| Jun 27, 2014 at 23:19 | comment | added | J.R. | Do you mean that, instead of doing homework, you simply copied from someone else who had done the assignment? I'm surprised another student (or other students) so readily let their work be copied. Not only are they doing work for someone else, but they could easily be implicated (and punished) if the copying is discovered. | |

| Jun 27, 2014 at 21:07 | comment | added | user17965 | @aeismail The Netherlands. I copied it from other students homework. | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 21:05 | comment | added | Thomas | @Relaxed Edit two would indicate the USA (given $'s). | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 21:04 | comment | added | aeismail | @user17965: Relaxed wants to know because punishments for plagiarism can vary greatly by country. Also, it would be helpful to have a better sense of what exactly you did wrong. Did you copy another student's work, lift solutions from a website, or something else? Also, what sort of "honor code" does your university have? | |

| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:45 | comment | added | user17965 | Nothing much, I got a zero, the professor was (too) nice about it. | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:44 | comment | added | xLeitix | "Edit: I actually got caught once before for plagiarising on a single homework set." So what happened then? | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:43 | comment | added | user17965 | Why do you want to know? (I'm paranoid) | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:42 | comment | added | Relaxed | In which country are you? | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:29 | comment | added | user17965 | I passed the finals without cheating. The homework did count for the grade (but I got decent grades for the exams). | |
| Jun 27, 2014 at 20:28 | comment | added | Ken - Enough about Monica | Did you pass the finals without cheating? If so then you did something wrong, but you proved that you know the material. Take that comment as you will. | |
