Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
Because it’s no use to have the answer when you don’t understand how to do it yourself. When the test comes around, you still won’t understand it. If you need help, ask a teacher, classmate, family member, etc. Or look it up on google.
actually there are some people who help others with their homework
Its up to you to make those grades with resurch and effort on your part. Remember its your grade not ours and you need to learn it not us. Do the resurch you will be smarter for it. Hope this helps :-)
Generally people help by giving formulas or hints. Not answers. I’ve seen it a bunch around here :). So, if you have a question don’t just ask for the answer. Ask for help solving it. Good luck!
Because a lot of ppl hve more serious problems than the math problem of the day!!!
maybe because people are naturally nosey and love to meddle.
huh?
Because you are supposed to do your own homework. You need to learn how to find out the answers for yourself. Not have us to work it out for you.
All you need to do is type the question in the address bar above instead of typing a post.
i personally dont help because i agree with yodaluv12..

also… most questions can be answered by going to google.com and finding it there… if i can do it at my age… and being out of school for 15 years… then those who ask for help for homework should be able to do it with out wanting people to give them the answers…
I think it is that anyone can talk about love. Only the well-edumacated can speak to educational challenges.
YAH, no one can figure out this kids homework..thts got to be it!

no.. my daughter would always come home from school.. complaining that she had no idea what to do… or how to do it.. so i went to the school and talked to the teacher… in reality.. she could do it.. and did do it in her class… she just wanted me to sit and give her the answers…. as with most posts on here… asking for help with homework..
whts sad is how many replies this post is getting, while ppl w/ real problems like kids who hve been abused and are all messed up jst watched, amused.
So I got the answer wrong? :(
Next time I’ll just look it up in the back of the book.

lol….
Another thing, I often help with homework questions, if I think they are difficult. From now on because of your post I will stop doing this.
You have just lost another homework helper.
Lol may I have a copy of the book of answers?

Yes, when you graduate :)
haha, I went on this website in history today asking ppl on their opinions of the spanish armada and the only response I got was “I agree, let’sbomb those basards.”
quite amusing..lol
uh oh.. thep is angry… lol..
i never help with those questions but only because i feel as though the people asking are asking for the answers.. not the help…. just because they are lazy in finding the answers themselves..

google.com… has some very good answers if the time is taken to figure it out.. its the ability of being able to do it… or being lazy and just wanting people to answer the questions for them..

Whether love-life or homework, it takes a lot of faith or not caring to just take an answer and pretend it’s the answer to one’s own personal problem without understanding why.
I bet it will take that person longer to wait for an answer on this website than the time it would take to actually do the assignment on their own.
Anonymous.
I read your post and typed in spanish armada. The was masses of stuff that came up.
You where just being lazy, hoping some one would do your homework for you.

I believe you care and am not trying to imply otherwise.
I’ve posted a few math homework questions anonymously because my book didn’t help at all, and google just pointed me to websites that only made things more complicated. I received the help I needed though, and it was all because of how I presented myself. I showed the work I did. So I don’t really appreciate how a lot of the people who posted in this topic are generalizing by saying that everyone that posts a homework help question is lazy. Not everyone is lazy. I agree, a majority of people that do are lazy, but not everyone. I only help with homework questions if the person presents the work they did already.
Yah, but you’re a different story cause…you’re just cooler than everyone else..haha =]
hey
You say that they nobody’s willing to answer important questions that affect people’s grades, right? 2 questions then:
1) If you were helped, would the grades be reflecting your ability or ours? I’m sure your teacher knows the answers to the homework he/ she sets you and sets you homework to test the extent of your understanding. Let’s not defeat the object here.
2) If everybody had no clue and typed their homework questions into this website and got answers, would there be an end to the number of retards being produced by our schools?! If we don’t help you, it’s for your own good!
rekaru.
Read my answer above. Up to now I do help with homework questions but only if they are genuine ones. like you are explaining.
I resent your remarks, generalizing that I dont help.
I never specifically said that you generalized though, so it wouldn’t be right to automatically assume that I was talking about you.

if i can personally go to google.com and get the information needed with just a click of a button.. i refuse to help those in need… because its just being lazy… however.. if you are sincere and need help rekaru.. then being that you try to search for the help and cant find it.. that is different.. and im sorry.. but the majority of the questions asking for help on homework is all out of being lazy…
Exactly. The majority of the homework help posters are lazy, but not all of them. :)

well.. if ever stuck.. then send me a shout.. and i will be sure to help you..
Thanks shi, give me a shout if you need anything too. :)
The curriculum has changed over the years anon; a lot of schoolwork depends on the use of the internet nowadays.
So are you asking us not to be wise and use our resources…are you not right now using technology to fulfill ur state of boredom?
Kid are crafty and smart.
deal w/ it.
This is a website I found some time ago, using the links on the website and the links to other websites, from it. It has a lot of good stuff on it.
I think it might be a good website to visit for the younger generation to use when they are bored. They do need to have a bit of patience though and explore it.

My God, any more slack and you’d hang yourself! Which is exactly what is happening.
This generation of children has more tools and hand-holding than ever before. The students in the rest of the world are learning more things faster than in the U.S. The reason for homework and school in general is to make you think and be able to come up with problems and solve them yourself, creating things that don’t already exist in the world. With the internet, homework is SO much easier than it was when I was growing up, but “you kids” are still asking for the answers!!!
It’s like a drug. If you get all the answers given to you you all your life you will choke on your own ignorance and be a blight on society instead of a citizen that does something with your life.
I will not cut any slack to anyone. F’ing learn something like I did, and quit asking for handouts!!!!
UCreateUrReality.
I agree with you 100%. They get no help from me from now on. Even with the realy difficult stuff.
All down to that last anonymous.
I would like to see proof “that other students in the rest of the world are learning things faster than in the US”. I have proof otherwise. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/…
rekaru.
I dont think your link proves otherwise, in fact I think it proves that American students are lagging behind.
Although I don’t agree that that article gives a good sampling or is nearly enough “proof,” I will subit rekaru and rescind that statement.
Even if our students are as good or better than other countries, help.com and all these other tools will not be around when people start real jobs or are expected to produce ingenuity. AND, in the past it has been America that has been known to foster the kind of learning that produces Do-ers, and saying we are as good as other nations at math and science does not address the point that we are becoming a nation of people that go through life with things handed to us, instead of having to work for it or invent it ourselves.
With all the help and abundance (the internet) that Americans have compared to the rest of the world, we should have FAR BETTER grades than anyone.
Rekaru, the point of my comments were that far too much slack has been given. It’s high time real work was done like I and the people of past generations had to do to continue to make this country what it is…. or for that matter make normal, happy, people with something to contribute and create with their life
There have always been slackers in society and there will always continue to be slackers in society. It has just become more obvious now.
You know what I think would be the best use of time for people looking for homework asnwers (until the site gets a policy on the subject) is to ask for the best homework sites.
Google and other metasearches are good for history and science, and www.physicsforms.com is the best place for math.
There are so many more slacker children now than there ever were
“With all the help and abundance (the internet) that Americans have compared to the rest of the world, we should have FAR BETTER grades than anyone.”
Are you saying that other countries do not have the internet and resources we have, or did I just misread that?
I personally think that there should be a homework bot.
They dont have the manpower or time to make one.. this is a free site, afterall. SO many demands on it, instead of actual help given.. you know, work.
Btw, the majority of students in the world cannot afford to be on the internet. So yes thats what Im saying.
Do you have proof that other countries cannot afford the internet?
Err, anyway, I’m going back to sleep. I have the flu..so, good night everyone. It was a nice discussion. :)
For various reasons I’ve been kind of flipping through different operating systems on my computer; here is one that is interesting, sponsored by a company in Africa, and focussed on education. http://www.edubuntu.org/
On a smaller level, I have seen HomeworkHelperBots but I have no idea how effective they are.
I will always help with homework, but only if the user can do more than just copy and paste the questions from their homework in here. I will also rarely just give the answer; I’ll always show a process or give just enough information for the person to figure it out on their own.
Don’t come to this site demanding help and getting angry when no one responds since you are being so belligerent about your homework. Approach it nicely and people will be more obligated to help.
Because homework will eventually go away, you’ll get through it.
Whereas problems of love will always be there.
That is what your teachers and study hall are for.
Because it’s easier to see the details of someone elses love life and give objective opinions, whereas it isn’t always easy to look at your love life like an outsider would.
because love is what makes the world go round, not grades.
That is what i’m saying that is importatn but homework is more important
These core values can be ranked in order of importance (love, life, home, work) … different people rank them in different orders.
You need to get an education on your own so you can get a scholarship and go to college, or that person you ask is super lazy, and your lovelife is important because there is that one someone that will make you happy and if you miss that chance it won’t make you very happy much later in life.
“So are you asking us not to be wise and use our resources…are you not right now using technology to fulfill ur state of boredom?
Kid are crafty and smart.
deal w/ it.”
if you were so d(a)mn smart, you could do your homework
Is this like a joke question?
It’s your homework, not ours.
What’s the point you even HAVING a grade if you didn’t do it yourself?
becuz some ppl think love lives r more important than grades and they dont really care where you end up
just because doing homework is boring,your lovelife not.hope so.
Because most people here find relationships more stressfull and complicated than schoolwork.
The whole point in getting a grade for your work is marking for future employers etc, your level of ability. If we do it for you its not your own grade.
Technically you could argue that its cheating.
because although your grades may be important in the long run… peoples love lives seem the most important at the moment, if youve ever been in love, you would understand, its a time when you think of NOTHING else and you are all over eachother 24/7!!! god its amazing!! i miss it.
because at the end of the day love prevails over all subjects. thats what i believe. always look at life(although it might be hard) as though the cup is half full. good luck with your homework anonymous
Because not many ppl want to help someone cheat…porn.
Important, Grades? Come on, in 5 years- what difference will an A vs a B be? What about your love life in 20 years. Your love life can affect you for your entire life.
Also, often people may not know the answer to your questions. Or perhaps they know that simple Google search will provide you the answer.
Besides we love the drama of love.
(hint: try Yahoo Answers for homework. These two sites are very different and I find they work better for different things. Help.com is really good for emotional support and passionate answers. Yahoo Answers is better for things like homework.)
Ok to be fair to you what kind question you want ask. Remember you will not answer but how to find it.
half of the helpers here dont care where you end up and they only help the people thta desperatly need dates and the important questions we ask becasue we need help with are completely ignored
what a shame they dont help out with the reasonable posts one bit

Circaxxsk8r, you write with such excruciating ignorance that your post should not even warrant a reply. Had you read even one of the posts above you would have seen that. Proves the point about not doing your homework properly, doesn’t it?!

Such an unjustified generalisation. Obviously you have had some bad experienes. IF you dont like it then why are you here?
