Faculty: Discussions

Setup Discussions

You can set up discussions in the Discussion tool. To set up a new discussion, you first have to understand topics and forums. Topics are specific subjects of conversation in which students and faculty can interact. Forums are basically collections of topics that all have something in common with one another, like a unit or subject matter.
