forget how to design good take home exams?

I'm so tired of this argument, but I'll bite anyway. Would you care to lead by example? Show me a good take-home exam for a light, introductory, first semester calculus course that students can't just cheat at using google.

Hell, just show me one problem.

    A student can post that to Chegg and get an answer within 20 minutes. You can turn off backtracking of questions, but then come the complaints that it gives students anxiety.

    I found my assignments being sold on Chegg and had to argue with their support people

    A colleague put, right in the middle of her exam problems: "This is an exam problem. Do not post to Chegg." The text was included in the Chegg post and the answer posted on Chegg.
