Hi Erin,
If the post was incorrect or didn't meet the requirements, the instructor will most likely reject it, and it will be removed from the board. If you weren't able to complete last weeks discussion requirement you can start with this weeks question.
You will do the 1 main response of 250 words, and once that main response is successfully posted you can choose 3 of your peers to respond to. Try to think of this like a conversation. If you didn't meet last weeks discussion requirement, you can add an additional peer response to this weeks question to make up for last week.
So: 1 main response, and 4 peers.
You also email your instructor via the help & support tab. To do so, click Help & Support:
When you click on help and support, you'll be brought to the search section. You will click on the blue search button shown below :
Once you click on the search button, you'll notice the dark blue bar has more tabs added
You will click on "contact us" and be brought to this form
For subject, you can type "Intro to Allied Health"
In the question, ask what you need and however you would like to word it.
You will select "instructional support" for department
You will select discussion board for support type
And then click the blue continue button, and then finish submitting your question.
Let me know if you need me to clear anything up.
