Ban NoRedInk


Ban NoRedInk
The Issue
NoRedInk is an awful, terrible, and hurtful online teaching application that some schools force their students to use. The whole website is fundamentally flawed and is an absolute waste of time. The prompts that NoRedInk gives to the students make absolutely no sense and cause the students to get frustrated while completing their assigned tasks on the site. Also, NoRedInk assignments take hours to complete when, in reality, it should only take about 30 minutes.
NoRedInk also unfairly punishes students for even one question answered incorrectly. If a student gets a question wrong at any point during the lesson, they are required to correctly answer 3 more questions in a row to continue on with the said lesson, and the counter resets itself if another question is answered incorrectly. Also, if the students use hints at any time, they cannot move on with the lesson unless they answer 3 questions in a row correctly. This is why students who use NoRedInk are scared of using the site hints because they fear that if they use said hints then they will be met with the difficult and unforgiving penalty system. The penalty can also seemingly go on infinitely if the student constantly fails to get 3 correct answers in a row, and can cause us to be stuck on one topic forever, without an end. This website, with the addition of the broken and unfair penalty system, ruins student's days and also kills their grades.
As a victim of NoRedInk, I absolutely hate this website. I was always stuck on one topic for 50+ minutes with the website constantly mocking me for my 'great effort'. During my English class, my friends all around also got frustrated with this site and its foolish and unfair penalty system. I bet at least 90% of students in the world hate it as much as I do.
All of the pressure that comes from NoRedInk is completely unneeded and harmful. All of the stress that NoRedInk gives its victims (the students) is harmful amounts of stress that can truly negatively affect them later on as an adult. The only website where you experience such behavior on is NoRedInk.
All that NoRedInk seems to do is bully students by punishing them for even getting a single question wrong, making it one of the most rude learning tools to ever exist. The students are being forced to use a website that practically bullies them and mocks them for every single question that they get wrong, and it is awful and evil.
As a victim of this site, I hate every single second I was on the website. In the end, it does not teach students basically anything.
This site actually sparked student suicide rates up by 80% back in 2018.
NoRedInk is a horrible learning application that causes bad student behavior and frustrates a ton of students. I had enough of putting up with this broken and unforgiving site and its harsh and unforgiving penalty system. This site either must be banned, or taken down entirely. Everyone hates the site and it must be done away with. Forever.
