How to Use the Student of Fortune for Academics, the Online Tutoring-Be Sure it is not Cheating-Why!

Are you looking for an answer for why in the "How to Use the Student of Fortune for Academics-Be Sure it is not Cheating-Why!"? Then you are on the right track because we have to be sure that our learning needs to be full of honesty otherwise in society we will always try to find our greed fulfilled even in the welfare works for others instead of doing welfare and earning at the same time, while learning and seeking and making the self and the social-development.

You see the greed is grabber of all that we can convert into making a genius within all of us, is not it. So, let us find it out though all the information is available on the Student of Fortune. However, I have copied and pasted it over here for the sensitive and honest student hesitating to use online services for academics, and for other details, it is better to view and read on the website.

Is using Student of Fortune cheating?

Great question. Let's start out by asking a few more questions... Is using Wikipedia cheating? How about participating in a study group? Reading the textbook? What if a friend proofreads a paper for you? What if you search for something on Google?

The truth is, any resource, online or otherwise, can be used for both learning and cheating. All of these resources are different and have only one thing in common: you, the student. So, before you use Student of Fortune or any other resource, ask yourself:

* Do I have my instructor's permission to use this resource? For instance, you wouldn't open your textbook during a closed-book exam, right?
* Do I have an honest desire to learn, or am I just trying to get someone to do my homework for me?

We think that the University of Southern California's Director of Student Judicial Affairs and Community Standards, Raquel Torres-Retana, sums this all up nicely in a article in USC's Daily Trojan about Student of Fortune:


If (students') purpose was having someone else do their work, that would be viewed as a violation. But if people are using it as a tutor, then it's a tutor. It's the same online as it would be getting help at your neighbors apartment.

At the end of the day, we believe that most students don't use Student of Fortune to cheat, and that we make a big difference in helping people learn. Here's what some students have said about the tutoring they've received on Student of Fortune:

* "Explanations were easy to understand and only wish that I had known this kind of help was available earlier."
* "Wonderful to work with and very helpful. More helpful than my own professor."
* "Great work! You gave great examples and explained everything. Thank you!!"
* "Your detail goes far beyond what my Lewis & Loftin book offers. If you not a teacher you should be. Cheers!"

We invite members of the community and academia to comment and provide recommendations regarding our service and policies. In fact, we encourage you to send an email to the site's founders.

So what's your Academic Honesty Policy?

We're thrilled that thousands upon thousands of students use Student of Fortune to get tutoring help. We believe that we've created an wonderful opportunity for students, tutors, experts, and even professors to come together and share knowledge. Our unique content marketplace approach allows students to get tutoring for less money because tutors have the opportunity to charge less and earn more money by sharing their tutoring with more than one student.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a culture of learning and integrity, and this requires a careful approach. Sometimes this is pretty easy: If a student asks someone to write a paper or take a final exam for them, this is obviously cheating. We scan for these sorts of questions as they are posted, display explicit warnings, and remove them when we are made aware of them. Sometimes it's more difficult: if a student asks for an explanation for a chemistry equation, how do we determine whether or not they have both permission and an honest intention to learn? Ultimately, we have put strong measures and language in place to discourage abuse, but it is up to you to act with honor and integrity.

Much of the responsibility lies with our tutors, too. If a student wants someone to take a final for them, little cheating occurs (beyond the dishonesty of their intent) until someone else comes along and says, "Sure, I'll take your final for you." Therefore, our policy covers both students and tutors as follows:

Our Academic Honesty Policy for Students

We know everyone tells you to take school seriously. But hey, we're going to tell you that too. So remember: it's wonderful to use Student of Fortune to get help learning how to solve tough homework questions, but it's absolutely not OK to cheat!

* Don't ask people to complete entire assignments or write essays for you.
* Don't ask people to take quizzes, exams, tests, or final exams for you.
* Don't post a question unless you have your instructors implicit or explicit permission. For instance, don't ask someone to proofread a paper for you if your instructor says this is against their rules.
* Don't post a question without an honest intention to learn from your tutor's help. If you simply turn in their help as your own work, you're cheating!

What's in it for you? In the long run, your grades and where you went to school won't matter at all if you don't actually learn what you're supposed to be studying. We were (and are) students just like you, so trust us when we say that you'll only gain something out of going to school if you make an real education out of it. Plus, if you are found cheating, you will be banned from ever using Student of Fortune again!
