Found this on the interweb and thought it was interesting
Hm ... seems to mean that this gives an edge to the kids with smartphones (which I DO understand is an awful lot of them).Greg Bernhardt said:Found this on the interweb and thought it was interesting
Perhaps the teacher should print the URL on there toophinds said:Hm ... seems to mean that this gives an edge to the kids with smartphones (which I DO understand is an awful lot of them).
Yeah, that would keep it more fair. Getting to be very few folks who aren't at least connected somehow, although if I recall the stats correctly, the US is not very near the top of the list for % of homes connected.Greg Bernhardt said:Perhaps the teacher should print the URL on there too

Maybe the use of the barcode is not so bad. Good only if all the students have access to the video; otherwise unfair to those who do not. That's why asked about the situation. One should not make judgements too firmly without knowing the details of the situation better. Even better if the teacher would give a student direct personal instruction to help, regardless of the video.lurflurf said:It is pretty usual homework, they can get extra help from the video.
this is the link if some people can't read barcodes

A barcode is a series of vertical lines of varying thickness that represent a sequence of numbers or letters. It works by using a scanner or camera to read the barcode and translate it into the corresponding numbers or letters.
A barcode on homework can help with organization and grading. It allows for quick and accurate identification of each student's work and can be easily scanned into a computer for record-keeping purposes.
No, barcodes are difficult to duplicate or forge because they require specialized equipment and software. Additionally, each barcode is unique and can be traced back to the original source.
No, any type of barcode can be used for homework as long as it is scannable and can be easily read by a scanner or camera. However, some schools may have a specific format or type of barcode that they prefer to use.
One potential drawback is the cost of implementing a barcode system, which may require purchasing equipment and software. Additionally, if the barcode is damaged or unreadable, it may lead to delays in grading or recording of the homework.
