This is just to help her with her quick checks. That is all
Then why was she using it on a unit test?
probably to check her answer
Any kids who are using this website during a test are doing so for only one reason: to cheat. They'll make up all kinds of excuses, but the bottom line is that they just want answers, no matter if they understand the content or not. =(
The huge problem with cheating is two-fold:
1. If a kid gets better grades than he/she deserves, then the next levels of the subject (math, science, English ... ) will be very frustrating because the kid didn't learn the earlier concepts.
and
2. If a kid succeeds in cheating in early school years, s/he will continue the habit in further schooling and probably into life. To quote a teacher in California, "I want my students to be successful -- not only in my classroom, but in life. If they rely on shortcuts and cheat, they won't survive in the real world. No one will make allowances for them there ... I explain that if they cheat in college, they won't just get a zero on an assignment -- they will get kicked out of school."
