Great teaching students

I like nothing about Brainly. It is powerful -- pays to come up first on a google search, and convincing -- clever "advertising" to convince students to beg their parents to pay for it. It contains specific, curriculum based questions taken by students from assignments and tests. There is no monitoring. There is a way to flag answers as being from an assessment, but I've seen very few of the answers removed from the site in my 5+ years of flagging HUNDREDS of answers. There is no intent by this company to provide a learning experience. Its business plan is to exploit vulnerable children and their desperate parents to "get through" school without learning important concepts. Even worse, many answers are incorrect or poorly explained, meaning that any POSSIBLE learning that COULD take place doesn't because the content is not monitored or critiqued.

This is a total no-no for students who are not learning things in class. I have noticed many of my students, cheating using this website during exams. Of course we try to stop them, but they always find a way to cheat. I would suggest all parents to BLOCK this site during exams or revision worksheets etc. Other than that, during studies you can UN-BLOCK it.

While this tool may help solve short-term answers, it will not help a student learn in the long run.
