What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

sounds like an activist mom to me... i wonder if a kindergartener would have acutally drawn a poster like that by himself?...

Dont care if it was his mom.. i support her in this view..
the school shouldnt be able to put up it's own pictures of jesus
the school shouldnt be able to assign a jesus drawing project.
BUT
the school shouldnt be able to cencor a project where they asked the kids to be creative and decided that they didnt like that creativity(as long as it doesnt break established rules)
I do not though have a problem.. if the school said specifically.. draw a conservation poster but do not use any religious references in it. This could be argued as a "challenge" rather than cencorship.

Last since the evironment is a contravercial issue.. even though i think the non enviromentalist are nuts.. if you require a child to make a save the enviroment poster when he either doesnt believe it needs saving or religiously believes there is no reason to.. then he shouyd be able to attach a disclaimer but should still have to do the project.
