Sometimes when students post to newsgroups asking for help with their
assignments, I wonder if they know how easy it is to track this kind
of query. I routinely do a DejaNEWS search on what my students have
posted at the end of the semester, sometimes it is quite enlightening :-)
Incidentally, my viewpoint when students ask for help, especially if
they are reasonably open about what they are doing, is to provide
pointers to the solution, but not the solutions themselves :-)
