So I'm taking a web programming class this semester and we had to design a xhtml site w/CSS. I spent a ton of time working on mine and getting no sleep and this other person (who I helped with a lot of her work) got the exact same grade as mine... Sometimes I don't understand how teachers grade. Should I say something or just suck it up.

My site: http://ruby.fgcu.edu/courses/rboggs/fu/fu002/

Hers: http://ruby.fgcu.edu/courses/rboggs/fu/fu007/

The assignment in question is Assignment #2.

I would like to point out that your teacher is taking drugs of some kind. Or maybe, he goes into chat rooms with 13 year olds.

I completed the required objectives and also added extra things (like the style changing). He said he reserves the highest grade for people who go "above and beyond." For Assignment #1 some girl who's page looked terrible and didn't even fulfill all the requirements got a 97.

Assignment #1
Her: http://ruby.fgcu.edu/courses/rboggs/fu/fu008/homepage.html
Mine: http://ruby.fgcu.edu/courses/rboggs/fu/fu002/assign1/

She got the 97 and I got a 90. Go figure... I must've done something to tick the teacher off, not sure what though. Maybe he likes females better?

your site looks more polished compared to her's, which looks rather basic.

functionality, your sites are about the same. as for overall polish, you should have got a mark or two higher because yours is more polished.

it's obvious, your teacher likes animated flash gifs.
Next time start in geocities page builder and add all the flashy annoying crap you can, guaranteed A!

So the lesson learned here is that sleep more, stop helping others with their work and don't worry about what others are getting - you will have less stress in your life and do better. 93 sounds like a borderline "A" to me. Good luck.
