When it comes to challenging the educational system, no one is more creative than students looking for a fun final exam. Students at Tippecanoe High School in Ohio did just that asking for an exam on Fortnite rather than the class's subject, chemistry. Teacher Mike McCray wagered with his students that if they could get 6,700 retweets of an original post to change the exam's subject, he would do just that. Well, guess what? Twitter came through.
Twitter do your thing please help me I need to pass this class #Fortnite #APChem #APChemistry pic.twitter.com/izckLvrbFx — Jilli Zuz (@JillianZuzolo) February 23, 2018
In fact, the Twitterverse went far and above the call of duty: The post by student Jilli Zuz has been retweeted nearly 32,000 times.
"I don't have a Twitter account, so I didn't really know if this was feasible or not." the teacher said. "Obviously it must have been, since somebody told me it got up to about 30k retweets."
Not being a gamer, McCray has his work cut out for him. His plan is to "make up chemistry questions that involve Fortnite terminology."
Do you have any suggestions for him? Let's hear it!
