Teachers: here's a way to keep track of your students' posts and comments
Hi ISCFC teachers!
It's great to see the session underway with so much student enthusiasm.
Several teachers have asked me how they can keep track of their students' posts and comments.
The best way to do this is to have your students send you the link to their personal page. Here's how to do that:
1) Have the students click on their picture next to any post or comment they've made.
2) that will take them to a page that says @[_their user name_] on it, with all of their posts and comments collected.
3) if they look at the top of the browser window in the URL bar it will say something like this:
---
footprint.stanford.edu/discuss.html#!/@hodin
---
4)…but in place of “hodin” it will be *their* unique user name
So if you know each students user name (=screenname), then you can figure out that link for each of your students…
BUT…note that their *screenname* is _not necessarily_ the same as their “display name”! That's because we asked everyone to change their display name to identify their country and not use their last names.
So what you need to find your students' post/comment page is their *screenname* _not_ their display name.
Sorry if this is confusing!
Thank you Jason! That is very helpful!
