![]() Texas A&M reportedly found more than 800 cases of academic fraud after a faculty member noticed students were finishing complex exams in less than a minute, with some of the information coming from Chegg, a university official told the NBC News Stay Tuned Snapchat channel. While websites like Chegg and Course Hero aren't designed for cheating - they're marketed as a place for students to get help - they do offer a platform for it, experts say. The study ruled that the increase correlated with the shift to online school and indicates students are using the tool in ways "not considered permissible by universities." A recent study led by Thomas Lancaster, a senior teaching fellow at the Imperial College London, found that the number of questions and answers posted on Chegg's homework help section for five STEM subjects between April and August 2020 was up over 196% from the same time period in 2019.
