Cheat Cheat

But who told you that this wrong?!

 First of all cheating develop several skills like -choose the idea that you need and parathrase it; then reread the topic once again-as you know repeating is better than learning by heart :); moreover cheating some dates and afterwards develop the idea -increase your imagination and logical structure- That is cheating!

 Now -What is wrong about this?

we steal the ideas and we do not want to develop ourselves-it is criminal :)

The solutions?!

  • Give the students easy explaining topics-interesting for them

  • Do not charge them with the themes or subjects that they never will accept .

    • Make the lessons in a such way they would like to cheat and imitate you but not your papers.

    • Support them encourage them accept their own ideas and opinions but not fail the papers just because you do not like them.
