Using the 'Discussion' feature

The Discussion feature in Coursebox allows learners to connect, share ideas, and engage in meaningful conversations within your course. Whether you're encouraging peer interaction, hosting reflective discussions, or facilitating Q&A, this tool supports collaborative learning and builds a sense of community. Instructors can also moderate discussions, prompt participation, and respond to comments directly.

The steps are:

• Select Discussion from the menu

• Select Admins and Facilitators from the drop-down menu

• Select Enrolled View from the dropdown menu

• Post a discussion.  By clicking the Add button you can include an image of file to the discussion. Then press send.

Tip: 
- Moderate Comments: You can respond to learner posts or remove inappropriate comments if needed.
- Pin important posts: Highlight key contribution or instructor guidance.
- Enable or Disable Replies: Control whether learners can reply to each other or only to instructor.
- Use for Assessment:  Some instructors use discussions as part of participation grades or reflective tasks.
