I'm a school teacher (not math or science! haha) and need to mount a dry erase board. I can't drill into the wall but can use something akin to removable adhesive magnets, command strips, etc. The board came in a box along with stand, tray, wheels, etc. at a weight of 50 lbs. The frame doesn't fit our space so I need to mount. I'd like to keep the 50 lb estimate in our math as to "play it safe." Can you ELI5 how much magnetic strength I will need across the back of a 6x4 ft. board to securely/safely mount this? I'm sure there are many factors involved that I may not have answers for but I'll find out and follow up." ### Discussion #13 by @reddit > **Author:** [@reddit](https://x.com/reddit) > **Metrics:** 1 likes · 0 retweets · 1 comments · 100 views > **Posted:** 2026-10-09T20:09:45.464000+00:00 > > "Sophomore feeling lost … I’m currently a sophomore finance student at a non target university in New York.

Students used them all in the first week. Then most of them stopped using most of them, and we genuinely don't know why, and our metrics don't actually tell us anything useful. That's where I'm sitting right now. The usage pattern is pretty consistent: a new student activates somewhere between 7 and 8 modes in their first week, which felt like a win when we first saw it. Exploration, curiosity, exactly what you'd want. But by week 3, the same students are down to 2-3 modes, sometimes just 1. And the ones that survive aren't the ones we designed to be the pedagogical heavy-lifters. Flashcards stuck around way more than we expected. Socratic-style doubt-solving, which we thought was the most sophisticated thing we'd built, gets dropped almost as often as the novelty modes we honestly weren't that confident about. I've been staring at these logs trying to figure out if the survivors stuck because they're actually producing learning or because they're just frictionless and habit-forming in a Duolingo-streak kind of way. Those are very different things."
