Email, Chat and Discussion boards can help you build learning communities in your online classes.  Using these tools, students can collaborate and debate, explore and reflect, report and review.  In this session, we will examine threaded discussions and, explain how they work.   We'll consider guidelines for use and then practice creating forums, opening and posting to threads, and reviewing and managing student work.
