Discussion assignments

28.07.2023

This help page is for learners

The course may also have discussion assignments that can be completed

  • in the Course Message Board (task for all course participants),
  • in chat messages, for example with your own group that you create yourself or with groups formed by the trainer,
  • using the discussion block on the course content page.

Not all courses may have a message board in use, so it will not be visible at all on the course. It is a good idea to read the assignment guide carefully when you are asked to do a discussion assignment. The discussion assignment can also be a mandatory assignment.

The discussion on the content page works in the same way as the message board of the course. You can write your own messages in a conversation and reply to others’ messages. You can also like the posts from others in the conversation.

Example of a discussion on the course content page. This discussion is a mandatory task completed by the learner. The discussion is anonymous, i.e. it takes place under pseudonyms.

If the conversation is set to alias-based, your nickname will be set with the first message. In the future, the alias will be used in all alias-based conversations in that Priima environment. If necessary, you can change the alias my-data.

An example of a discussion with aliases.

If the group has different group discussions online, these discussion groups can be formed in the chat messages.
