"Edline has proven unpopular with students due to the ability of parents to view their student's grade."

Where does this come from? I know students that use Edline and a lot of them like it because you can easily find out what you have for homework or what your grade is - instead of having no idea the whole term/marking period.

I suggest that statement be removed or at least modified... there is no reference saying it was unpopular etc.

"zOMG edline is soooo00 great"[edit]

I don't know if these/you anonymous editors are making this page your soapbox of teenage angst or there really is genuine dislike for edline in the secondary school system. I'll assume the second (good faith, etc.), in which case you'll need to cite some source that shows significant student dislike for edline (in the secondary school system, for students if you continue with the statement you've been reverting to). And before you do, you may want to check out what wikipedia is not.

Personally, edline doesn't sound like the worst thing in the world. If teachers really do upload presentations and other classroom material, it'd be a godsend on days when one is absent. And a lack of edline doesn't stop parents from learning their student's grades. Perhaps it makes it a bit harder, but most teachers I know will gladly give out grades via email, regardless of school policy. BillG | Talk 03:12, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah i definitely like edline, get class notes and such, pretty sweet. the people who dont like it are usually failures who blame their bad grades on teachers

It doesn't reflect well on you when you just randomly insult people and don't sign your name. Remember: Don't bite the newbies.--Redlock 17:07, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After making the above comments over a year ago, I am amazed to see these attacks on a product when it's the various school districts implementing the product that are causing them the reported pain. To the people which continue to attact Edline, one of the simplist concepts of a market such as the United States's is that of supply and demand. If school districts want a tool to implement more paperless school systems and are willing to pay a reasonable price (which they obviously are), the tool will be created. It's a pity people aren't this passionate about issues which really matter. BillG | Talk 03:32, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you would like reference stating EdLine is unpopular with students, I suggest you check out the facebook group titled, "Child abuse increased 78% since the Edline was created". There you will find more than 13,000 students complaining about how awful edline is. If that's not enough proof, I don't know what is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.142.209.27 (talk) 22:12, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
