Communities of teachers co-operating online to organise and implement the school curriculum and teaching methods more effectively. Enrolment deadline: Wednesday 15 October.

Response to questions posed and difficulties faced

1. Word formatting displayed in my text : This has been described as “problem with appearance of my post”. It happens when we “copy-paste” a text from a Word document to the text editor area. It actually displays the Word formatting options making it impossible to read the message. Solution: Save the Word document as plain text first (see image ), so that you get rid of Word formatting.  Then you can copy-paste it to the text editor area.
2. Editting/Changing a post: After creating a new topic, click it so that you can view your post. Then click edit to make any alterations you want. Finally click submit.
3. Avatar image characteristics: To upload your avatar, just follow step 4 of the 2gather platform FAQs.Your image should ideally be something like 100 x 100 or 200 x 200 pixels. Then just follow the instructions to crop it.
