Create and manage discussion forums
Use the Discussions tool in your unit to encourage users to share thoughts on unit material with their peers. You can set up forums and topics for users to ask questions, discuss unit content and assignments, and work together in assigned groups.
Important: When copying and pasting formatted content from other sources, the HTML Editor in the Discussions tool contains some limitations. For example, if you copy content from a document with APA formatting and paste it into a discussion thread, the formatting is not preserved. As a best practice for submitting assignments, TAFE Queensland recommends using the Assignments tool. If you choose to use the Discussions tool, TAFE Queensland recommends submitting documents as attachments in the tool, which preserves document formatting.
