On my home node I have some notes about learning. You may find some of them useful, particularly Re (tilly) 1: Discipline.

However I won't be answering your homework questions, and am likely to downvote people who do. I don't care how desperately you wish to get the grade, I don't like anything resembling cheating.

What is the worst case scenario if nobody does your work for you? You may fail the course and have to retake it. That isn't so bad. If you belong in network management, you'll pass the second time. 5 years from now nobody will care that you failed the first time. OTOH if you shouldn't be trusted to manage computers, you may fail again. And while that may be painful for you, in the long run it is better for both you and for your future co-workers if you wind up in a field that you're better suited to.

What is the worst case scenario if somebody does your work for you? You may pass without having learned the material. Meaning that all you've learned is how to beg resources from others. After that, even if you have aptitude, you'll wind up in the same situation again because you're now lacking the necessary foundations.
