The Blackboard Discussion Board feature allows instructors to conduct asynchronous class discussions in the online environment. Within the Discussion Board, instructors will need to create Forums for the topics they wish to have discussed. Forums are "umbrellas" that cover broad topics. Within any forum, there may be several "threads" going on at once. Threads are used to address specific concepts within the broader area of the forum. In this video, I'll show you how to create forums.
