![Post an engagement check-in to your class](https://www.gonurture.com/og/tutorials/post-engagement-check-in.png)

Ask everyone how they are engaging right now and choose how they answer.

Updated 14 July 2026

Post a quick engagement check-in that asks participants where they are on the engagement spectrum, and decide how much detail they give back.

**When to use it:** Mid-session, when you want a fast read on how engaged everyone is right now.

## Steps

1.  With your session live, tap the compose button (“Send a message”) to open the composer.
2.  Choose the **Engagement** tab.
3.  Leave the pre-filled prompt **“How are you engaging right now?”** or edit it in your own words.
4.  Set **Require an explanation with each engagement check-in** on or off (under **Engagement check-ins**).
5.  Set **Show suggested responses to help participants explain their engagement** on or off.
6.  Tap **Post**.

**Tip:** Both toggles start from your session defaults, but what you choose here applies to this one check-in only. Turn on “Require an explanation” when you want a written reason, not just an emoji. You can also **Save for later** instead of posting, to queue it as a prepared draft.
