Questions & Responses
Instructor Questions
You have the option to tag your post as a specific question to instructors. By marking the checkbox (Instructor Response Requested), your instructor will be notified of your question when you create your post.
Answered Questions
If a student or instructor replies to a student's post by answering the poster's question, you can mark that reply as a “best answer.” Doing so creates a tag on the post to indicate to everyone that the question asked in the post has been answered by the reply.
Helpful Posts
Instructors have the ability to tag posts and comments as being Helpful. For example, an article a student shares from an outside source that is helpful to the module. Keep an eye out for posts that have been marked as helpful.
Filters
You can filter on both the Author Type and the Post Type to more easily find what you’re looking for.
