[quote=Anonymous]She could take it up with her teacher, but generally students are asked to show their work to demonstrate the strategy they used to solve the problem to enable collaboration. If you have a wrong answer, and there's no work shown, it's a total waste of time for everyone. Because the collaborator (the teacher) doesn't know what happened. Documenting process in order to facilitate collaboration is usually kind of unpleasant, but basically everyone who does knowledge work has to do it because otherwise we can't work in teams. The collaborator can also be your future self, who might not remember how they did something. But if you have notes, it's a lot easier to go back and recreate or learn from something you did before. The teacher might also say they require it to know students didn't cheat, but at this point with the internet that's kind of a dumb reason. [/quote]
