How do you get access to Chegg Answers without a pro subscription?
I am currently studying Mathematics and Physics and there are a lot of questions which aren't available on Chegg, so I was wondering if there was an way to get these answers without actually paying up for the subscription.
https://homeworkify.eu/ helps! but it's rather lengthy. I mean, I have to give it my email and prove that I am a human, open email and then click on the link to get a solution. Is there an easier way?
Use wolfram alpha for math. It has a free option.. it allowed me to check all of my work in my college math. Its great.
Can second this, it's especially helpful for dealing with a bunch of unit conversions. I also used Symbolab a lot for Diff. Eq,. and since it was only a 5 week class it was worth paying for their premium so it shows you all the steps.
thank you will try!
Physics professor here. I am very disappointed in you.
Homework should be free points anyways. Most of the grade should be exams.
I have to disagree. If points are free, why even have the homework in the first place? To have students pay out the nose for some shitty online homework system? Grades should include homework and classwork constituting what is called Formative Assessment and exams forming what is called Summative or Cumulative Assessment. The idea being Formative Assessment giving you feedback as you are learning and Summative Assessment telling you if you have mastered the material at the end. This is the approach I employ with students earning on average 60 percent of the formative assessment points. Their work does not reflect mastery and the entire point of grading, whether it is used that way or not, is to indicate to students that there is room for improvement. After earning 60% of the points, students adjust so that by the time they get to exams, their work does reflect mastery. Any other way does not show the growth students are capable of. Now, I am not ignorant of the importance students place on grades and how much stress they put on themselves to get top marks (whether that stress is justified or not). So regardless of how I use grades internally in my courses to motivate growth, almost all of my students earn A's as their external grade. In the end, it's a win win system. Students maximally grow, and the risk/perception of failure is mitigated. You'll also notice I always use positive language. I.e. I do not take points off; students earn or I award points. Seems like a small thing, but framing something as a reward rather than a punishment makes a difference.
Former student here. I am very disappointed in the system for which you're supporting. While I enjoyed most homework assignments, I especially enjoyed the P/F assignments (you either pass for turning it in, or fail for not turning it in). The P/F assignment were still graded for accuracy, though, so I was able to learn from them, too, but without the stress about negatively affecting my grade if I didn't understand something. This is what I mean when I say 'free point' homework assignments, but I can only vouch for myself. During schooling, I used homework sites like Chegg (but not Chegg, because they suck) to check my answers, never as cheating. You saying that you're disappointed in OP without truly understanding how they use these sites, is extremely disappointing coming from a (college?) professor. I expect better from both sides of the fence.
Being disappointed was a joke. Why would I be disappointed in someone I don't know? Per the pass fail system you describe, that is essentially what I do. Classework is graded with daily written feedback on a 0-10 point scale with 5 points coming from attempting the assignment. I aim for a 7 because a binary scale does not represent the quality of the students' work. In the end, it reduces yo the same binary scale regardless, but the important thing is that they receive the level of feedback they deserve. My grading policy does not effect their grades. Most of my students earn A's.
Oh and I know fully well how these sites work. I have to contact them frequently for violation of copyright.
I am writing exams. I am not in a university. i.e., this is not graded.
This is not HW help tbh! I just want to understand it and understand how to solve it. I don't have enough time to ponder over each question
I do have a suggestion. Look at what answers you can. Then, revisit the material in a month. If you can reproduce it cold, then your approach is a good one. If not, I suggest you approach it the way everyone preceding you has ever understood it: ponder.
If you take me up on helping, I don't want to waste your time. I'm not going to solve your homework. I'm going to engage in Socratic dialog, asking you questions until you figure it out on your own.
Lastly, given that I'm old and that I have had more than one student, I don't believe you. ;)
Textbook companies along with Chegg (which is owned by a textbook company IIRC), and organizations like College Board and World News and Report form what you might call the Educational Industrial Complex. Just like Big Pharma or Big Tech, their goal is power through exploitation. You might check out OpenStax for a text (it's free) and r/physics (as much as I'd prefer not sending people to reddit). Or DM me. I'd be glad to help. It's literally my job.
Have you tried looking in the textbook? Most likely, there is a similar question with an example and steps outlined how to solve it.
I have a bad textbook. Lots of errors. can't depend on it.
If you're not in school and just teaching yourself the material, get a better textbook. There are plenty of exceptional textbooks in physics on libgen. If it's for a specific subject, I can probably recommend you a textbook.
