Accessing a Discussion

Overview

Your instructor may include Discussions for you to participate in for your course. There are multiple ways to access Discussions in D2L. Usually, discussions may be accessed from the navigation bar in your course or you may find that your instructor has included a link to a Discussion from within Content.

Here's How

Option 1

  1. Once you enter your course, click Discussions found on the navigation bar.
  2. On the Discussions List page, click on a topic's name (e.g. Introduce Yourself).

Option 2

  1. Once you enter your course, click Content found on the navigation bar.
  2. Click on a module (e.g. Week 1), locate the Discussion topic then click on the topic's name (e.g. Introduce Yourself).

    Note: Any questions relating to accessing course discussions should be directed to your instructor.

Common Reasons for Not Being Able to Post
You may or may not be able to view or post to a discussion topic for some common reasons:

•Your instructor requires that you first start a new thread in the topic before you can read and reply to other threads by your classmates.
•The dates set for the discussion availability will limit you to when you can view the discussion and post.
•Your instructor locked a discussion forum or topic to prevent new posts from being created, thus making the conversation "read only."
Subscribing to Discussions
You may keep current with your Discussions by subscribing to the forums, topics or threads in your course. Once subscribed, you will receive notifications when updates occur. You may also unsubscribe to a forum, topic or thread to stop receiving notifications.
