is selling homework illegal?


Recommended Posts

at my school, there is a large market for selling homework... ie: if someone needs a current event done, someone else will do it for them and sell it to them. is this legal?

It is not illegal, but chances are your school has a policy against people doing that. I know at my college getting caught doing something like that will get you an F in the class, or suspended for a term, depending on the severity of the action.

Yeah I dont think its illegal or anything, but if you get caught then most likely you'll be asked to do the homework again by yourself maybe in dention or something or you will be automatically given an F. Kinda reminds me of Nelson in the simpsons selling exam answers in the toilets :D

and something like that would have to be stated in the student handbook or something, right? thats too bad, i would have had a lot of fun getting people in trouble... :p

It seems a locatio conductio operis.
mind explaining what that means? lol..

I don't think its illegal, but schools most likely have some sort of policy against it. I don't see any problems with it, the homework gets done, and someone makes a couple of bucks on it. Its win-win.

If it was your first time getting caught I think they would probably warn you, but if you did it a second time they will take more serious action, i.e contacting your parents maybe, and I dont know if you have this in the USA, but in UK schools your given a formal exercise to do, and be signed by parents and it goes in your personal folder thingy (its like a criminal record for kiddies :cry: )

people who buy and sell homework need to be flunked out with no possibility of finishing for several years and have their hands chopped off

although the pedling of homework might not be illegal, when you submit such work, you are claiming you did it yourself, when you actually did not. It is plagiarizing, and although you might not end in jail, it can cost you your career. Besides, doing the homework is the actual way through which you learn.
