Tutorial for using iEARN's WWW-based Forums

Registering to Participate in iEARN Forums

Everyone in the iEARN database can register to participate our WWW-based forums, as well as give access to students in their classrooms. Each participant needs to be REGISTERED to enter the iEARN discussion forums. You can register by going to the "Join iEARN" section of www.iearn.org if you are a teacher.

If you are a student, ask your teacher to register with iEARN, and he/she can then create a User Name and Password for you. This can be done on a Teacher's My iEARN Page.

When you go to the iEARN Interactive Forums at http://foro.iearn.org, you will see the page below.

You are now at the main iEARN Forums page:

After registering, you also have the option of entering information on your school, organization, country and your school's WWW home page which will also appear when your messages are posted in the discussion forums. To do so, click the "Preference" button at the bottom of any of the Forum pages. After adding your school name and WWW address, click on "Set Preference" at the bottom of the page.

You are now ready to enter the Teachers Forum (also known as Lounge) to meet other teachers and introduce yourself and your school. The topics in this discussion forum are organized by the most recently active.

You are now ready to start reading and posting messages in the iEARN Forums!!!
