Discussions
Discussions
Discussions are often used to encourage discourse and engagement between students and/or the instructor, whether it's introducing yourself, discussing your goals, or exchanging thoughts about a particular topic related to the course. You can find discussions in the Discussions tab in the top menu:
You might also see discussion linked from items in the Course Content area.
Your instructor may require a level of engagement in a discussion. For example, you might be required to submit your own post before you can see your classmates' posts, or you might be required to post a certain number of replies.
