Smarter Network User Guide Smarter Network is essentially a learning network - a place to discuss, debate and share ideas, experiences and insights into how we can deliver better learning environments for Scotland's schools. As an invite only site, Smarter Network provides a closed forum for key players involved in creating better schools in Scotland to share and exchange ideas and knowledge. The two main features of the site are the discussion forums and the photos application, which are both described in more detail below. Discussion Forums The discussion forum provides a way to interact with other members, to share experiences and voice your opinions. You can reply to an existing discussion or start your own. Creating a discussion: Navigate to the “Forum� tab to check out existing discussions or start your own by clicking the "Add" button.
You can reply to a discussion by clicking the "Reply to This" link under any comment you'd like to reply to, adding your message to the comment box and clicking "Add Reply" when you're done. Alerts for new discussions: To be notified when new discussions are added you can click the link to "Follow - Email me when there are new discussions" at the bottom of the main 'Forums' page. Please note - this only notifies you when a new discussion is started, and not to any of the subsequent replies to the discussion. Please follow the instructions below to ensure that you are notified when new replies are left.
