Course-wide discussion forums

Discussions and community are core to the learning experience on Ruzuku. So we’re really happy to announce our new course-wide discussion forums. This new forum complements and extends the lesson-specific discussion prompts which you’ve already been using in Ruzuku. Here’s how the forum looks:

As the Guide of your course, you can create as many different custom categories for your forum as you like. For instance, you might create categories for course materials, assignments, general questions, or anything else you choose. This will help keep your course discussions organized and easy to navigate for your students. Here’s the category editor:

The course-wide forum is designed to make it easier for you to foster a sense of community within your courses, encourage collaboration and engagement, and help your students to learn from each other. We hope you try it in your courses soon, and would love to hear your thoughts & suggestions!
