When a student cheats he is failing to prove that he understands the material and the student have also missed the main reason with go to school, to learn. The students who cheats claims that they understand what they are doing but really they don´t. The teachers believe that the student understands and does not know that the student is struggling.

Employers don't want workers that have this sort of thinking and it is going to show what lack of ability and knowledge he has rather as soon he starts working.

After a while of copying others work or let someone else doing it for you the student's ability to think creatively and successfully could become really bad and the students are no longer able to write creative by them-selves because for example the computer or someone else does it for them.
Finally, students also begin to lose the sense of responsibility when they have other people do their work. This creates the feeling that life will always be a handed to them on a silver platter. But it may be one thing that is the worst of all and
