MySchoolHelp was a website for online collaboration between school students, created by entrepreneur Ben Lang.[1][2][3] Lang was a 17-year-old high school student when he created the site.[1]

A Forbes column on ethics in the classroom used MySchoolHelp as an example of a potentially problematic tool in the context of "the increasingly grey area of academic integrity".[4] The Stuyvesant High School student newspaper, the Stuyvesant Spectator, raised similar questions.[5]
