My Friends

Your Friends area displays a list of those users who have been flagged as your Friend within the site, and any of their Views to which you have been assigned access.

Using the dropdown menu allows you to move between your existing Friends list any Friendship Requests you have pending.

To add someone to your Friends list you will need to view their profile – either via a View, Community or Search result. Depending on their Friendship Control settings you may be automatically accepted as their Friend or you may need to send a Friendship request. If you do not see an Add to Friends option, the user most likely set their account preferences to not allow new friends to be added to their list.

When sending a Friendship Request you can choose to send with the request, a short message introducing yourself. This is important to include when you have set yourself a Preferred Name.

When you add someone to your Friends list by accepting their request, you are automatically added to their list. When you remove someone from your Friends list or decline a Friendship Request, you are also removed from their list. If you remove someone from your Friends list they will automatically be notified of this change.

A user can resubmit their Friendship Request to you, even if you have previously rejected it.

When accessing another user’s View, you will see the following options at the bottom of the View screen.

Place feedback

You can place Feedback on a user’s View or an Artefact within that View. You may make your Feedback Public or Private. Public Feedback may be seen by other users with access to the View. Private Feedback will only be seen by the View owner. A View owner may choose to make your Public Feedback Private, but cannot make your Private Feedback Public.

Staff members will be able to include a file with their Feedback where the View has been submitted to them for assessment via a course based Community.

Report objectionable material

If you come across material within a View that you believe to be offensive or inappropriate, you can report this to the Site Administrator using the Objectionable material form. Please consider the context in which this item is used before reporting Objectionable Material.

Print

The Print option will allow you print a printer friendly version of the View or Artefact you currently have open.
