The Discussion Board, which is similar to a bulletin board, enables participants to read and post messages and create discussion threads. Some instructors may use the Discussion Board to measure class participation. If your instructor adds a
forum to the Discussion Board, you can reply by posting your reactions, comments, or questions. When you participate in a class discussion, keep in mind that your entire class will be able to read your postings. To post a message to a
discussion thread:
1. Log in to Blackboard and select the appropriate course.

2. On the left side of the screen, click on Discussion Board.
Note: If you do not see the Discussion Board button, click on Communication and then click on Discussion Board.

3. Click on the forum in which you wish to participate.

4. Then, click on the message to which you wish to reply.

5. On the right side of the screen, click on Reply.

6. Type your message in the Message box.

7. If you wish to preview your message, click on Preview. Then click on Submit to submit your message to the forum.
Note: You may need to scroll down to view the Preview and Submit buttons.

To start a new thread:
1. Under Discussion Board, near the top of the screen, click on Add New Thread.
 2. Type the subject and your message.
 3. If you wish
to preview your message, click on Preview. Then, click on Submit to post your message to the forum.
Note: You may need to scroll down to view the Preview and Submit buttons.
