Question

2 questions:
1: How can we get some more members for the groups that we are studying? e.g. Biology has 27 members online, I have had my question there for a while now and there are 0 replies.
2: How come everyone has a picture of a bicycle?

Answer 1

go to a group where the people actually are and post a link to your question in the chatbox and ask people to help if they can.

noone can afford gas for cars anymore so they are trading in :)

Answer 2

Answer 17

Answer 18

Hi mmoul, as you have noted the pace in biology is slower than in math.

We have eight to ten people in bio who consistently give good help. Quite a few of them have not been around much lately because it is exam season in the North Hemisphere and they are all buried under their own cares and concerns at the moment.

It tends to be a slow group anyway where some people pop off quick answers for glory (sometimes right, often not - though I have lately started handing out warnings for that and it is having a noticeable effect on the "time till first answer" metric), then the group adds to it and discusses it over the course of a few hours or a day. Perhaps this inherent to the discipline itself rather than to the set up on OpenStudy.

As for attracting more people to biology, I'm all for it. We are in desperate need of someone who actually likes ecology!

Answer 19
