Here’s an interesting website that may come in handy for a number of people about this time of year. If you’re in college, you’ll probably understand that this website could come in pretty handy for you when trying to make sure you’re going to be absolutely prepared for your upcoming finals.
There’s a bit of a concern on my end about plagiarism, but it’s very slight. See I’ve never been one to really value or demand perfect attendance. This was especially the case in college where I had a few classes where attendance was a waste of time. Nothing discussed in class was ever on tests or required, all the content was only what was in the book.
The ISleptThroughClass website provides a social network for note sharing, class related documents access, an extended opportunity for networking among your classmates. Participants can also earn rewards for ongoing and reliable participation on the site.
The site was founded to meet an age-old challenge—students need notes from classes that they’ve missed because of athletic events, family emergencies, personal illness, or to supplement their own poorly taken notes. The site also allows students to review past study guides and helps students who struggle with classroom notes, have attention span issues, or don’t understand the concepts of a classroom lecture. The social networking aspect of the site provides the added benefits of group study sessions and real-time blogging.
There’s only one question left. Why in the world didn’t this thing exist when I was in college?
