Forum Guidelines
Who can use the forum?
Everyone can use the forum to introduce themselves, ask questions and share ideas. It is moderated for inappropriate content. We'll be using the 'Granny Test' to decide what's okay. The 'Granny Test' is pretty simple, it says 'If you would say it in front of Granny without blushing, it's okay for the forum.' Our main audience are students in primary and high schools and our main interest is in Tassie tigers, biodiversity and adventure. Please stick to the forum topics.
Students
If you are a member of a classroom who is following the journey you are welcome to register and post as an individual. However, it's a good idea to use a nickname or class code to identify yourself, rather than your full name. Your class can create a username and password so a shared class contribution can be posted as well.
