The Discussion Board is a place where students can discuss class materials with instructors and other students. The main Discussion Board page contains a list of all available discussion forums.

The Discussion Board contains the following hierarchy: The Discussion Board > Forums > Threads. There can be one or more forums on the Discussion Board. Each forum can contain multiple threads. A thread contains an initial post, and then any replies to that post. For example, in an Anatomy and Physiology course, there may be a forum dedicated to the Digestive System. Within that forum, students can create threads on separate parts of the digestive system with their research and observations, and an instructor or students can respond to the posts in a thread.
