Title: Discussion Forum
Course: Elements and Principles of Design

There are different discussion forums depending on your needs. This one is a standard forum for general use. Users are allowed to post new topics and answer others. There is a forum that only allows one topic to be started by each user; there is one that requires a student to post an answer before they see the responses of others (Q & A); and one for one long threaded discussion based on the teacher topic.

You can force users to be subscribed so that they receive an email of each post that is made or they can choose to subscribe. You may also rate the posts of students.
