Students do not miss your turns waiting for us to post. We make every effort to get every post but we do all have our own lives. Like your own it at times gives us less time on CC than what we would like.Some days are worse than others and on these days there might be less of us on in the time frame of a random game or post than we as a group realise. This along with the restriction of trying to not have teachers help in games they are also in, leave some holes.
So in an effort to further improve our system and student understanding.
Here are some tips:
Post your games for help with as much time as possible for teachers to get to you to help.
If you need to play and have no help at the time. Don't miss your turn play it as best you can. Reread the basic strategy sticky. The entire classroom is a tool you can use. There are piles of good advice,tips and even mistakes in the other past games around you. Take advantage of them and use them to learn along with the help you get in game.
Don't be afraid to ask questions even if you feel they are stupid. We are here to help.
