Sorry to say our instructors only give us papers and modules and don't teach, we pay them big tuition then fail us unlike chegg who give us straight forward answers that can have as our reviewer. Yes, not all answers are correct but passing matters atm also school atm is not the real world. Its for preparation we mainly need to pass to have work unless I want to be an instructor to have that kind of thinking to teach students and strictly mandate it to them.
You nailed it with this comment! In my experience, lecturers just expect you to know everything and don’t actually do any teaching! It’s so frustrating and makes the whole experience awful. I’m considering getting Chegg even just to point me in the right direction for coursework.
I totally agree with you. Uni are ATMs. They charge the same tuition for online vs in class course. Online is B.S. they dont teach anything. You basically read the book on your own and are left alone if you get stuck!
The reason chegg and other likewise companies exist is because education under current circumstances, capitalism, etc etc is just not enough. There is a reason why a lot of students use chegg or something similar. Universities are doing something wrong. So firstly let's fix education to actually HELP and then we can review those sites.
Never did I state no one should seek a little help. There's a difference between seeking verbatim answers to graded assignments and getting a little help. Would you like me to reply with an enormous number of ways you can get a little help? I can do that.
I was never sure if Chegg was legit but this video has convinced me to get it. I'm studying through distance learning and my lecturers not the best so something like chegg would help
@MikeCanestaro You realize you can learn through it so you try on your own then look at chegg and learn how to do it through chegg basically. Becoming better at doing the problems as a result
To me it sounds kinda like you are generalizing quite a bit. Do all faculty share the same DNA? You seem to be imparting your own biases here, to say the least.
Using the word except instead of expect shows how much you need to actually put in the work in school as oppose to just copying answers of a website lmao Also this comment is so ridiculous it is very likely that it is a sarcastic joke 😂 As in " you expect us to study and come up with our own answers, how dare you spend all that time preparing the lessons" 😂
I totally agree. My high schooler is sitting in a programming class who basically is a lazy sister boy. Didn’t teach shit. And expect to have all the knowledge. Quality of teacher in America is just shit. So Chegg really helps students. I guess the low esteemed teachers just can’t accept reality that students are students
I only want to use chegg cuz apparently professors dont like to teach us. first 3 weeks we barley learned a thing and he wants to able to solve 4 chapters of math in physics. smh
When I was in college we didn't have Chegg. Back then I knew that solutions manuals existed, but publishers made it extremely difficult for students to purchase them. I know that in your situation you were taking about a lab manual that you wrote yourself, but a lot of professors simply use for homework and exams questions they get from textbook publishers. In the back of the book they usually have answers to odd numbered questions only, with minimal explanations. I remember that as a student I would use those solutions in the back of the book to check my work to see if I was actually learning. I did not consider that cheating or dishonest. I think it's possible that students today are just using Chegg as a resource to check their work and whether they understand the subject. Education is evolving from in-person to online. I think the old ways of assessing student learning are going to have to change with the time. With AI and the fact that answers are just a few clicks away, it should be more important to assess who knows how to use technology and resources to find answers, and not just who has memorized the answers.
Totally agreed. You don't gain anything from copying all of the answers instead of doing the work yourself. Chegg is cool for textbooks, but having full assignment solutions is a step too far. "When all you want is the result, you start to look for shortcuts. And if you take that shortcut, you might lose sight of the truth."
So just to be clear Chegg is good for books?? This isn’t my only stop but I’m just trying to make sure I do my due diligence that this cite is legit. I’ve never seen textbooks so cheap so it seem too good to be true.
For people like me, who aren’t learning through a class but instead simply by reading a textbook, companies who offer a service that shows the steps in a textbook problem can be quite helpful. While I understand why it’d be frustrating for unique problems that you came up with, in terms of the standard textbook problems, I hope people keep in mind that there are people who use it outside of the classroom and not to cheat on homework. I also think that you should consider the other side of it as well. As long as your students are using this technology the right way, it will likely improve their rate of learning instead of hurting it. At the end of the day, if students want to cheat and are willing to dedicate time to that task they will do so. There’s only so much a teacher can do to account for that. Unfortunately, that’s as true in the past as it is now.
The best college course I ever took was my Forensics course which my professor had surprise quizzes randomly every week that were from either the book or face to face class this had everyone on there toes.
I mostly hate it when one person posts all the questions to chegg, and so the proffessor turns the test from an open notes group exam with 1 week to complete into a proctored exam with no notes and 1 hour to complete. We are desperate and chegg knows, all chegg is doing is punishing the honest students while rewarding the dishonest students.
tbh, came here just to check if it was a scam. Still don't wanna buy, but as a college student and having extra credit tests and homework's allllllll on fucking Chegg. Makes me truly question if the money is worth it for my money.
I know plenty of people who use and abuse Chegg, teachers and university’s advocating to work remotely and stay online are advocating for students to cheat and use sources like chegg. Remote learning can be terrible, lectures can be useless, textbooks are hard to just sit there and read/learn it all, especially at home 24/7, not good for your mental health and causes stress which likely turns you toward chegg to find answers for homework/exams. Wouldn’t have this problem if institutions in north america would let students go back to being students on campus.
@@MikeCanestaro While I agree with the broader point that Chegg and other systems like it are terrible, I have not gone through the hoops you have with them. I dislike them on principle. Assuming your video was made with college students and faculty in mind. One has to ask the question: Have you never uploaded grades into an LMS or are you being deliberately hyperbolic about how difficult it is create such a file? This puts everything else you have said into doubt.
@@ivanrothstein8405 You might not believe this, but I am kinda new to online teaching because of this thing where people keep breathing in and out these fatal spikey-balls. Also, get this! I have never uploaded grades to my LMS using a CSV file. I have opened CSV files, but turns out never had to create one. Is that okay? Also my comment about how you need a degree in IT was a bit of a joke. Now, I have just met you, but you seem like a really, really fun guy. So, I am hoping you understand the whole joke part. This has been going on for several years including when everything was face to face and I'm just a dumb chemist.

@@ivanrothstein8405 @mike canestaro isn’t the smartest cookie in the box. He actually has a video on his channel claiming that the earth is round! Everyone knows it is flat! I don’t think he is even a “professor” !!!
For the record, I’m not one of these people who posts a whole exam on chegg and copies word for word. I just don’t want to be accused of academic fraud because I occasionally use it to check my work for homework.
@@jackstratif9988 I submitted a "take down and information" request. I need to post a follow up video on that. They tell you the content and the username of who requested the question. I don't feel like what they provided was too damning.
@@MikeCanestaro Yeah there are some professors on Reddit who claim that chegg immediately forks over all IP addresses, payment info, childhood love letters, etc. upon request, but I think they are bluffing to try to scare students from using the website. I am of course totally against cheating, but one would think this would violate some sort of privacy rules. What can I say, it’s an awkward time for everybody.
I am renting an education book from Chegg. It reads text to voice at random parts of the textbook with no way make it read what you want it to read. I've been on the phone with the wild west customer service overseas who know NOTHING!!!

What's wrong with getting a little help? Sometimes it's hard to understand stuff, so we need people who understand stuff to just explain it simply.
