But the professors aren't stupid (one would assume). They're going to know about this guy, remember his site, and very easily compare the work?
(Edit: I don't have all the answers, or an opinion on this piece, just playing devil's advocate)
- michael_dorfman 17y agoYeah, but why make it harder for the prof? What's the upside to allowing students to publish the answers?
- DougBTX 17y agoTo encourage students to take pride in their work? Nowadays it is hardly any extra work for the prof either, any coursework of substance gets put through plagiarism detection anyway.
- ori_b 17y agoThis guy, yes. What if other people do the same without telling the profs? Although, honestly, people are going to hand down homework answers no matter what. Professors simply should assume that if the question isn't new, an answer has been made available to the students somewhere at some point.
