The kids are trying to get an education here, because the teachers aren't providing. Blocking one of the few places where they can get ACTUAL help and where people take time to explain (looking at you Griff!) will make things worse.

No one said nothing about blocking the site.
Nobody said a thing about students coming here to learn.
The full point is about lazy / incompetent students coming here to get their homework done and responsibility of those "bad" teachers.

You are blaming the students for being lazy; coming to a forum where you get burned down and trying to find an answer is not lazy in my book. Still there are a lot of homework-related questions on the forum (I never visit Q&A) where the student has not been explained what System.IO does, and has some kind of task or homework that includes just that.

And this is what I mean, that has nothing to do with the education or the quality of the teacher..
Believe me when I say, that there are even more drastic examples every day

Here is another typical example:
Quote: A number (N) of lines (extending to infinity) in both directions are drawn on a plane. The lines are specified by the angle (positive or negative) made with the x axis (in degrees). It may be assumed that the different lines are not coincident (they do not overlap each other). The objective is to determine the number of parallelograms in the plane formed by these lines.
If the lines are given with an angle of 10, 70, 30 and 30, the figure looks like this
com.tcs.cv.automata.ei.middleware.DocxToHtmlConverter@a4ad7b:image1.png
L1 is at 10 degrees to the x axis, L2 is at 70 degrees to the x axis, L3 and L4 are at 30 degrees to the x axis. It can be seen that there are no parallelograms formed by these lines
What I have tried:
[^]nothing

The latter is obvious, but the previous ones hardly. What school teaches VC6? What student has "Need to Disable share option in online word document" as a programming assignment?
There's a lot of them that are already in a workforce, and still asking for code, sometimes not even being able to answer whether code would actually solve anything.

It was also on whether we should collaborate with the teachers, to have the "cheaters" being caught.

enrolling in programming courses because "you want to become a programmer" really isn't a particularly good filter. No more than enrolling in a music class will make you a millionaire rock musician (or avoiding them for rap); no more than enrolling in a gym class will make one an Olympic contender.
Want to and able to, having no true cause-and-effect relationship (in either direction) is where the problem lies. Where I work, one of the employees went to classes to become a makeup artist. On a good day she looks like a geisha who applied her makeup with boxing gloves.

A teacher is not paid to filter, but to educate. Not to create the best, but to transfer the basics.
I understand the confusion, as most educational institute seem to be only filtering, not educating.

Tell her to find someone who can transfer basic knowledge. She might not be talented enough to use make up to look like something from the "Alien" movies, but that ain't the goal. Something like applying a foundation is not a complex science.

There's an implicit promise when teaching a curriculum: that the knowledge will be transferred in a usable manner - not just transferred.
Users vs. Builders. I can't be everything - and neither can anybody else.

How recently was your education experience?
Schools simply seem to filter based on who has "some" knowledge, instead of transferring basics. And yes, industry cannot rely on those false promises that schools give, so we have to test the candidate's knowledge on the subject again.

He/she just needs to deliver what the curriculum promised, in one form or the other, in order to claim money. Students seem to accept it, as long as they get their paper claiming they have said knowledge.

The visuals...thanks, I needed that.
So when you say she went...is it still work in progress, or is she done with the classes?

So - someone, somewhere - gave her scrolly-edged credentials to frame and wall-mount. Makes me wonder why I spent all those years in universities. No frame included with that stuff.

I do agree with the sentiment that students should be more recognizable; some people here only need a few keywords, others need a lot of background-explanation, and it is sometimes hard to guess which of the two you're talking to.
