responding to the discussion (M), excluding
the facilitator .
• The score will be calculated as P x M

participate.

that they are created
• All the posts count, even if the discussion is
active for more than a month
• Discussions can not receive the Award more
than once, even if they are subsequently
“revived” by new inputs of members
• Discussions (winners or runner-ups) that have
been converted into learning/training materials
can be revised as a result of new inputs
