Proper home for school/college 'projects'?

[Alec_t]

Too many students, assigned a project to do, post their requests for help to the 'Electronics Projects' forum instead of to the 'Homework Help' forum. Can the Projects forum header be clarified to make it clear that assigned student projects should be posted to the Homework forum only? (If they go in the Projects forum then members are likely to give full answers instead of hints).

Good idea, Alec.
I can't do that. Instead I placed a sticky post at the top of the Electronics project section with a link to the homework section.

I've updated the forum description now, although I don't know if it'll reduce the number of posts we need to move - as people tend to dive right in. Can't do any harm though .

Hopefully students will spot the sticky thread that Harald made, as that is more prominent.

Thanks guys. Hope that will divert at least some posts appropriately .
