That article says ~300 students, 30 posts each seems pretty normal.
- frozenport 11y agoNo! I've done a 300 person electronics class and we've gotten about 300 questions with a handful of people who ask the bulk of our questions.
- ikeboy 11y agoSo the original article: 1. Didn't mention it was an online course 2. Didn't mention there were 300 students 3. Claimed it was questions instead of posts
- burkaman 11y agoI don't think 1 and 2 are very important for the story, and the questions/posts thing seems like an honest mistake. No harm done. The meaning is basically the same, since the bot can presumably reply to any post, not just a top level question.
