Thank you so much for the info! This was recommended to us as entry to Unity College, and I super appreciate the advice and insight. Keeping in mind that academic disagreements aren't equivalent to arguments, and need to be handled differently, is definitely vital information for me! As well as making sure to write with the intention of starting conversations, rather than proving comprehension. Thanks again!!

[@AmberWebb-m6l]

This video was extremely helpful. I'm also from unity online. And honestly I haven't really been in online classes except when I took my CNA class but we didn't have any discussion posts but since COVID hit it has made going to school away from school possible and I'm looking forward to using these tips and a few others to write threads of discussion pieces.

Thank you for this video , This whole process is new to me. I am hoping to get this whole process down pact ASAP. I have just recently signed & enrolled into classes at Unity & feel as if these videos will do much justice. Only struggle with online courses is reassuring i am signed in on time & even though i am not physically there in person their is still help when & if needed. I look forward to furthering my education & finally getting a job doing what i love working with animals & their habitats!

[@gradehacker]

Great to hear that you found our video so helpful. Online school can be a challenge but it can also be great if you can organize yourself and are able to manage your time effectively. What other challenges are you having besides the one you mentioned about being signed in on time?

[@tiffanyramsey9897]

This video was suggested to me through Unity. After watching this video, I now understand that the discussion board is more then just a place to quickly respond but engage with my classmates, no matter their journey. I am going for environmental conservation and knowing how to respond and react to a post or reply in the discussion board will help me out in my profession. Thank you for making videos to get college students, like me, a better point of view on tasks that need to be done.

[@gradehacker]

Thank you for watching it and great to hear that we helped out!

[@jennclark6753]

What a simple video of ways to improve yourself via discussion posts. Thank you for sharing. Today I'm starting an online university class for the first time, and it's been several years since I've been in a classroom. This will come with many challenges I am sure, but this video will help me better engage with my classmates. Thank you for that.

The video was suggested through Unity but after watching, I have realized how important it is to be present and engage in online discussion posts.

[@busybee346]

Thank you for this! This video was actually listed in the learning materials for my first week of class. If others find it helpful, here are the notes I've taken on this video! A basic relationship with your teacher can significantly boost your overall performance. 1. Write in a text editor like Word. Double check with Grammarly! 2. Be clear and earn lots of replies. You want to have an easy-to-read post that catches the eye of your fellow student, who’s skimming through the forum for a post to reply to. If you get 3+ replies, your post will stand out from the rest, and your professor will notice that. 3. The more sources, the better. Use 1 - 2 more sources than the assignment requires. These can be material from the class, or external references. This will show your genuine commitment to the class. Also, it will help you tackle that subject from different angles and with more elaborated responses. 4. Share your own unique perspective! Your opinion and point of view will make your post unique. 5. Reply to your classmates. Carefully read what your classmates posted. If you want your responses to hold the same quality level that your initial post has, see how you can add value, and how your experiences and beliefs relate to what the other person thinks. 6. If you want to save time looking for complex arguments to reply to, choose a classmate that thinks differently. Read the post, and when you find the other person’s opinion. Ask yourself, “Do I agree with this, or not?”, and “Why?”. Your answers to this question will be more than enough to start a reply where you add value to the discussion while proving to your professor how much you understand of the class. 7. Do not make it personal or start an argument!

Great to hear that you got a lot of value from our video. What was your favorite tip?

[@micosstar]

yes (subbed from youtube recommend) - by: mico st⭐ar holo, a man.

[@gradehacker]

Sorry can really understand your comment. Can you please elaborate? Thanks

[@Australia-Leadership-School]

Thanks but I’m too young to use it

[@QueenOfTheDarQ]

thank you so much

[@gradehacker]

You welcome! Please let us know how it went with your discussion. What do you think is the best tip from our video?

[@christensmith-lo1zj]

I did not LIKE TO or WANT TO participate in *Wayne County Community College District* student discussion boards. Usually, these discussion boards are the only way to pass the class with no other options. So, basically, i completed discussion boards at Wayne County Community College District to earn my degree. Not because discussion boards there are good to do. Wayne County Community College District discussion boards are never good to do.

[@gradehacker]

Sorry to hear that, I hope at least you gathered something from our video

[@Australia-Leadership-School]

What a karan this is amazing
