Online Discussions: An Overview

Watch: Discussion Boards#N#See an overview about how to use the Discussion Board.

The main Discussion Board page displays a list of available discussion Forums. A Discussion Board can contain one or more Forums. A Forum is an area where a topic or a group of related topics are discussed.

Different Ways to View a Forum

If your instructor allows, you can create a new Thread by clicking Create Thread. To manage which Threads you see, select an option from the Display action menu.
