Talk:WebAssign

NCSU Firewall

As WebAssign is a direct market product from NCSU it becomes a conflict of interest that they use the coverage of the NCSU Wiki project to restrict open access to Wikipedia articles regarding the software.

How is this written like an advertisement? I don't see it.Mazeau (talk) 19:35, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Poor teachers love WebAssign, which makes me feel sorry for the poor students who have to use it. Unfortunately it is largely poor teachers who spend the time required to get lock down permissions on Wikipedia. These same teachers create pages like this, written like advertisements by bad teachers for bad teachers, despite the considerable number of WebAssign users who find it to be the largest waste of money in academia.

The worst part is that they become such zealots that they consider honest and open criticism of the software to be "Vandalism" and then negatively affect the free flow of information on Wikipedia by restricting access to this page.

Criticism

Where is it documented that 9000 students signed a petition regarding WebAssign's grading tolerance? It would be nice to know the type of petition (paper, on-line, etc), whether the students signing it were actual WebAssign users, etc. Otherwise it isn't really up to Wikipedia's standards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.133.42.206 (talk) 19:35, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This entire page isn't up to wikipedia standards. It's a puff piece for WebAssign. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.96.189.212 (talk) 17:07, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The criticism section appearsto be the writers opinion that is not sourced anywhere. The two links are only to webassigns pay options and nothing on actual criticism. The criticism itself, while not being sourced, is also silly garbage. The same complaint can be made of textbooks or any other course material. I am removing it unless anyone has any real objections.
