1. Start with the “Search” First

Before posting a new question, use the magnifying glass icon at the top of the feed. We have a wealth of archived knowledge, and your answer might already be waiting for you!

2. Lead with Curiosity & Support

Whether you are a veteran educator or new to STEM, every question is a good one. When replying to others, aim to be resourceful, encouraging, and solution-oriented.

3. Keep the Feed “Clean”

To maintain a professional environment, please note:

• Top-Level Announcements: Important “Start Here” and Admin posts are locked for comments to keep the most vital information easy to find.

• Discussion Etiquette: Post your questions in the “Discussions” tab for long-form help, and use the “Feed” for quick updates or wins.

• Community Moderation: To prevent confusion, the ability to “Turn Off Commenting” is reserved for Admin-level announcements only.

4. Categorize Your Posts

When sharing an update, use the Tags (like “Feedback” or “STEM Ideas”) so other STEMbassadors can filter the feed and find your contribution later.
