How to ask a question in the forum

Of course you're always free to ask a question in class (or to come and find me after school, or anytime). The forum is another way to get your questions answered. Here's how:

1- Figure out which section of the syllabus the question is related to. The outline is in the forum under General IB Documents. If you can't figure out where it's supposed to go, stick it anywhere and we'll move it later.

2- When you're in the section you want to post your question just click on "New Thread,'' write down your question and click on ''submit.''

3- This will send your question to the forum where someone will answer it soon.

How to comment on an article in the forum

When you’re writing a response to an article on the forum, please follow the three step rule:

1-   Read the article

2-   Comment on the article, in a considerate way, in a way that shows you’ve read the article and had some ideas about what it means, and

3-   Ask a considerate question of the article that again shows you’ve read it and thought about it.

It’s also a good idea to answer other students’ questions that you find on the site, but again always show that you’ve read the article yourself.
