ESLI 596--Business Writing for International Students
Discussion Forum

Welcome to your second, virtual classroom! Since we meet once a week on-line, exchanging drafts and exercises for peer review, it is crucial that you familiarize yourself with the discussion board. So read the following instructions first and register. Then enter and have fun!

Instructions

For privacy and security reasons, you will have to register the first time you enter the Discussion Forum. I have set it up this way so that a) you will be able to edit your own entries even after you have posted them; b) you can exchange private messages with me or other students, if you wish to do so; and c) so I can deny access to the discussion forum to anybody who is not in our course.

  • You can enter the discussion board by clicking on the link above or at the bottom of this page.
  • Once in the Discussion Board window, click on "register" at the top of the page, if this is your first time visiting the forum (if you have already registered, simply log in). Then click on:
    "I Agree to these terms and am over or exactly 13 years of age"
  • You will be asked to provide a User ID, password, and your email address.
  • User ID: choose your first name and last initial as your User ID (mine, for instance, is meggi s). If you prefer to be called by another name, please inform me before registering.
  • Password: choose a password you can easily remember--the site will also send you an automatic email confirmation of your registration, containing both your User ID and password. So keep the email.
  • To get to other students' messages and/or post your own, click on the blue "Welcome--General Discussion--Questions."
  • Make sure you log out before leaving the Discussion Board.

If this is your first time using a discussion board (or if you run into unexpected problems trying to post), click here to watch a short tutorial (opens in a new window).
