Adding and running forums
Discussion boards, also known as forums, are at the heart of Moodle, and they provide you with a way to organize and launch group projects and investigations, add student interaction, provide peer review, share information, and disseminate course content. You can also use forums to provide links to assessments. Many instructors use forums as the primary method for organizing content in the course. For example, in an eight-module course, you can lead each week with a forum. In the forum's description, you can include links to the readings and multimedia (audio, images, and videos). Then, you can ask students questions to respond to them in the forum.
We can get started by creating a Forum activity. After you select Forum from the activity menu, you'll be asked to give the forum a name.
To add the Forum activity, we can follow the same procedure as in the other activities. Click on Add an activity or resource and then select the Forum icon...
