The Homework Machine by Dan Gutman
When four students discover a machine that can do their homework for them, they think they have found the perfect solution to their schoolwork problems. At first, the machine makes life easier, but keeping their secret becomes more difficult than they expected. As the situation grows more complicated, the students must deal with the consequences of their choices and learn the importance of responsibility.
