Abstract :
In this paper we use an accuracy counter (AC) to develop the "Web design" course and to be the evaluation way for measuring and recording the learning status of students. The counts recorded by AC are used to be one of the grading criteria for the students\´ performance. Students can look others\´ achievement via the AC website, and may want to compete with others either they are classmates or not. Through the counts recorded by AC and the final scores given from other learners, this paper evaluates the possible competitive conditions and its relations between counts and scores.
