You sound like a lazy spoiled brat who just wants to get out of doing homework and play video games all day.
Homework requiring writing some shit down from Wikipedia is useless homework anyways - and here this seems to be the case.
They're trying to make sure you actually read the material. 🤦
But why would you? You should be able to use any sources you want to learn whenever you want, just be prepared for the exam. I wrote hundreds useless homeworks like this in middle school and I remember nothing from most of them.
You won't be prepared for the exam unless you actually do the work ahead of time. That may not be immediately true in middle school, but it's definitely true by the time you get to upper division undergrad coursework, at least if you're in a competitive program. You really are only selling yourself short in terms of being competitive at the next level.
This is even more true in grad school where you are expected to produce twice as much in half the time.
Because participating in life means you have to know things, not Google.
If you won't, we'll just use Google and save money by not even hiring you. If you can do it with an AI, so can we, so we don't need you. It's as simple as that.
Stop being lazy and pay attention in class.
Never said anything of the sort. That's your own uncreative view of the world refusing to see any alternative to how things were done back when they didn't have the technology we have today.
