uh...218 views, btw

I was WOW on that as well.

Anyway, yeah I clicked.

Viewed, but agree with others that's a crappy way of determining a grade.

I'm "viewing" it. Agree with the crappiness of the grade determination also.

done.

But by everyone here clicking the link... is that just pushing all the other kids' grades down further? What are the rules here before I click anything?

Yeah I wonder what happens to the weiner kids whose parents don't know people who know about ATOT.

I remember doing that experiment in science class. it was kinda cool.

I watched and helped.... but the more views=higher grade thing is stupid. I have no idea how they are correlated in this "experiment"

Unfortunately it doesn't show that video as being linked on AT, so our clicks are not being recorded, but we all know where ALL those views came from Thanks again ATOT, you guess are the cream of the class

You guys are harsh!

And he said the grade was "affected" by the view count, but didn't say by how much. And I think it's a relevant assignment for today's kids, but I think I would have chosen something besides YouTube....but maybe the OP can get us more details on the assignment?

Sorry I have no more info, only know his grade will be improved by more views.

ttt

458th view.

 

[randomlinh]

I bet this is just extra credit. I can't believe any serious grading would come out of this. I haven't lost that much hope on our educational system
