If you haven't been keeping track of conversations, how do you know how many you have?

Hi Beverly I have been searching on the page for the answer. I got an e-mail reminding me of the May 1st second lesson plan deadline and it told me how many comments I had to that point. I have not been able to find anywhere on the site that give you a tally. I see a number after the word comments but I'm not sure if it refers to the number of times the individual has submitted a comment or the number of comments discussed about the subject. Hello out there!!! Does anybody know??? Daarina Abdus-Samad Pasadena, CA

I think that the number next to the comments line is the number of times someone has commented on that particular post.

Hello. The site cannot tell you how many comments you have made. If you are wondering, you can email Cooper-Hewitt and we can tell you. We keep track of all of the comments. Thanks.

Does commenting on a conversation constitute a conversation or do we have to initiate a conversation for the conversation to count? Do we have to make conversations only on the City of Neighborhood's section or . can we converse wherever we like on the website?

I'm under the impression that as long as you comment, it counts.

Thanks, guys. I finally have something worthy to post. Today I was asked to give input on our IT department's new project - a video portal and digital media signage Cisco venders explained how we will give kids cameras to create videos about ANYTHING (news, lessons, field trips, other videos, power points) to post on the web and/or our intranet. Flat screens can be placed in the cafeteria, hallway, office, even city hall, hotel lobbies, anywhere to showcase what we're doing in school. Great marketing tool and what's best is that it is kid-generated. The lesson posting section is very similar to the Cooper-Hewitt education resource center site. Very cool! We begin the pilot next year at McMain.

I was told commenting counts.
