# Learners Guide To Discussions

## "Discussions" is a ‘forum’ style feature where you are given questions or topics to begin a peer-to-peer and/or peer-to-admin conversation.

 

### **How to post in "Discussions"?**

1\. Go to the course where the discussion is.

2\. Click "Add Post" and then just type in your response. *(You may also add a photo by clicking the upload image icon on the bottom left corner of your screen.)*

### **How to reply to a Peer's Post?**

1\. Open the "discussion" and you'll be able to see your peers' posts.

2\. Just click the "Reply" button and click "Send".

### **Completion Status and Requirements**

- If the discussion is set to be "Mandatory", you will see an "Incomplete" and "Complete" status prompt on your discussion board.
- If it's "Incomplete", you may click that and it will show you the requirements/metrics on how to complete the discussion.

- Once you complete the required tasks, it will be marked as "Completed".

If the discussion is not mandatory, you will not see an **"Incomplete"** and **"Complete"** status button.

 

### **Watch a Peer's 'Discussions' Post**

- You will also have a visual indication of posts you are watching or you can choose to watch specific posts and receive notifications.
- If you want to watch a post, all you have to do is just click on the specific post from your peer and tick the "eye" icon.

If you are watching a post you will receive push notifications for its new activities. You will also see any 'unread replies' as a visual indication on posts that  you are watching when in the app *(**But you will only see the notifications if they are enabled on your device.)***
