I cheatet so much with my TI. In every class we were allowed to use a calculator I would literally code everything relevant for the test into this small thingy. I still think I better memorized some of the things as my class mates.
Also I loved how it doesn't really communicate except with a cable no one had. So nobody expected me to share my 'cheats'
- Spare_account 5y agoYou accidentally prepared for the test while thinking that you were cheating.
- herbst 5y agoI did both I guess. And because I could not share it, teachers never bothered.
- Spare_account 5y agoThis gives me food for thought. I have young children, all under 10. The challenge is learning how to inspire them; you found a crutch that made learning less of a chore: converting the syllabus into chunks of code. I can already see that the my two eldest will both need very different answers, but if I can figure out what theirs is, I can hopefully help them focus where my childhood mind would wander during study sessions.
