<p>guys stop giving him a hard time, from most of your responses you guys just seem like the friendless social outcasts that think of snitching as their ultimate duty…he was helping a friend for Christ’s sake, it’s not like he was murdering anyone…</p>
<p>If he had questions, I think you could have just answered them or sent him links to the information, rather than just giving him your lab report. That seems to be a foolish thing for you to do to begin with; you’re not really helping him by giving him information on a platter.</p>
<p>*“dude like don’t copy it just use my ideas.” *</p>
<p>I don’t know about you, but using someone else’s ideas is plagiarism to begin with, even if he doesn’t copy it straight out.</p>
<p>For us, labs are just “learning experiences”</p>
<p>We partner up and share calculations/data and whatnot.
In the end we have to write up our own lab report but since everyone did the same lab we’re allowed to discuss and share ideas as long as its clear we did our own work and had slightly different and creative/innovative? conclusions. Especially if you guys are lab partners…in my school that’s what lab partners are for.</p>
<p>It sounds like you didnt mean any harm or purposely cheat or whatever. There’s really nothing wrong with discussion. So next time, just keep that in mind and talk about ideas on the phone. Or if its really late at night, you can list some main ideas to get him started instead of just sending him the whole thing. Even if he didnt mean to cheat/paraphrase everything, it’s really hard when you have the entire thing in front of you…kinda prevents your own style/creativity to kick in.</p>
<p>Sorry about what happened…i hope you get it all figured out!! Nothing wrong with helping a friend but just learn from this. Different teachers have different expectations and rules and such so if you know a teacher wouldnt approve of this (and now you do)…just dont do it again. If a teacher doesnt mind…share all you want!</p>
<p>You’re insane. How could you give your entire lab report? Tht’s just asking to get caught. You never know, maybe you’re friend felt lazy or had a bad day and figured he would take his chances by almost completely copying it.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t call it cheating. It’s only considered cheating if you’re aware that it’s occurring and you condone it. If someone copies off your paper but you’re not aware of it, you’re not cheating. Your intent wasn’t for him to take your report and paraphrase it.</p>
<p>That was a stupid thing to do though. You simply cannot trust any high schooler with a report/paper/project etc. I don’t mean to generalize, but work like that requires too much time to simply be rendered worthless because another kid stole your work.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Gonna be honest with you.</p>
<p>I’ve never read so much truth in one post in my life.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>hahahha that post was so… dramatic haha. </p>
<p>but update… the teacher didn’t say anything to us. she is secretly torturing us by acting like nothing happened even though she has our lab reports. but you know what? i dont care. night.</p>
<p>to me that dosen’t sound that bad. at my school though students are allowed/encouraged to collaborate at least for chem so idk. your friend shouldve known better than to paraphrase your lab though.</p>
<p>actually, this is cheating. if you give someone else your work and let them copy off of you, you’re still involved. you’re an accomplice of some sorts. copying ideas is plagiarism. i dont mean to be mean or anything. i’m just being honest. haha.</p>
<p>but you were bound to get caught if you “sent this kid a lot of [your] papers before”</p>
<p>i can understand that you were just trying to help your friend out, but unfortunately, he needs to learn to stand on his own two feet.</p>
<p>You did cheat. You gave him information and conclusions that he was supposed to deduce for himself. There’s not really anyway to present the case to your teacher to make her think you didn’t cheat.</p>
<p>i do the same thing
we have to do a calculation section and conclusion but our teacher lets us work together
sometimes when one partner doesn’t know how to do it i give him my lab notebook to look at. I have never thought that he would copy word for word from mine but i don’t think my teacher would think anything of it…i mena we are partners and we are supposed to collaborate
and how many ways can you possibly to the calculation section…there usually is only one way to do it</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The people you aimed this at don’t understand real world logic, unfortunately.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>lmao…</p>
<p>That quote completely supports my previous statement. ^</p>
<p>haha so what do you guys think cheating is? merely copying word for word?
if someone completely stole this idea that you had and then changed a little of it, isn’t that cheating? that’s like the same thing as rewording.
in the real world, there are patents granted to prevent this from happening. although yes, a lab is not as serious, it’s still cheating. don’t try to justify it and then claim that others are “friendless social outcasts”.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It doesn’t need to be said. It’s understood.</p>
<p>dearsky… you’re such a loser ahahhaha like seriously… i just patented my a$$. </p>
<p>haha so what do you guys think cheating is? merely copying word for word?

<p>why the hell am i on colleg discussion… cause im an “accomplice” thats why </p>
<p>drinkin bottles of the that clique yeah till i spit it up aahaha</p>
<p>“storming through the party like my name was el nino”</p>
<p>the real world? thats a joke? what is real? are you real? am i real? do i exist? do u exist? the real world… man ur brainwashed like the rest of them </p>
<p>youre just mad cause youre that friendless social outcast. b ekind we need to chiill like now …</p>
<p>WOW you are really, really immature.
friendless social outcast?
you’re the one who asked for relationship advice on CC, loser.</p>
<p>… i forget to cite my last quote… that was sum41 - fat lip … please dont accuse me of cheating</p>
<p>also… loser </p>
<p>"loser – n. A person who has fallen off the social ladder, climbed down the social ladder, jumped off the social ladder, or just never bothered to climb the social ladder in the first place. Upon arrival on the ground, losers begin to befriend fellow groundlings and realize how much fun a person can have when gravity isn’t an issue. It is perfectly acceptable to insult losers, because they have nowhere to fall to and it won’t hurt much. They will end up laughing about it later, anyways. Every now and then, a loser will glance at the top of the social ladder, but it is never long before they realize how pointless and stupid the top of the ladder is. </p>
<p>sounds like dearsky ahahah… that is from urban dictionary .com … thought i cite that so i wasnt penalized for cheating </p>
<p>i just patented this post toooo</p>
