How do you say no to someone who wants to copy your homework?

If they ask for your help, offer them the help you are willing to give. If they are disappointed to not get the “easy way out”, explain to them why you are doing this. Explain how it is helping them in the long run. Explain that you will still be there in an emergency situation, but this is not one.

Should I let someone copy my homework?

The best answer would be to simply say no, because letting the person copy your homework wouldn’t help anyone; the person copying your work won’t learn anything, and if they are copying your work word for word, you both might get in trouble.

Why do students copy homework?

Some students might cheat because they have poor study skills that prevent them from keeping up with the material. Students are more likely to cheat or plagiarize if the assessment is very high-stakes or if they have low expectations of success due to perceived lack of ability or test anxiety.
