Homework Policy - read before you post homework questions

mpot · 2nd April 2003, 3:02 PM

Requests for general assistance with homework are not permitted, and will be locked or deleted.

Discussion of specific implementation issues or ideas relating to homework are allowed, providing you've demonstrated that you've put in reasonable effort yourself.

Remember....your teacher assigned the homework to you to do, and not to OCAU. You'll learn a lot more if you try doing it yourself first.

Cheers,
Martin.

I reckon it's a great rule, it encourages people to think for themselves. Would you care to explain why you think it's stupid?

roflmao if you can be bothered to do it yourself why bother going to School, tafe, UNI ?????

Personally i see a fair bit of this, it really pisses me off. It only means that if you happen to get a programming job, you will mostly likely not have a clue what to do, and only waste peoples time. I have also seen this happen

This also applys to people asking for free image work.

If got nothing to do with OCAU or Associated services such as: UGBOX, Motorcycle club, Folding etc and charity organisation. Anyone else outside this boundry as a third party, club and business shouldn't be asking or expect a free service (Scabbing) without fairly compensation for the artist's work and time.

Pro or freelance Graphics Artist sometimes charge between $80-120 by an hourly rate. If it's beyond a simple task and something that takes a longer then your should be entitled for some compensation for your time

it also depends on the nature of the person. There are two types of ppl. There are the ones that are prepared to put in the work, then they will get a decent job out of it. Or there are the ones who lie to themselves and betray themselves and others around them by copying what others have done and get by that way, but they will be found out, and they'll be back at square one.

Do it your self, only get help if you really need it, but dont be asshamed to do so. Your only ignorant if you dont ask.

and if you want people to do the work or people to help you get the work done or to a higher standard!

If you think a post has been closed wrongly just report it giving your reason and we'll take another look at the decision made. I've re-opened the thread.
