Hi Suzie! Although there isn't a native discussion board tool in Rise, you can easily set one up using a link to another site. I used a free tool called Padlet in this sample Rise course. Once you've created the Padlet discussion board, copy the link address. Then in Rise, click Add Content then click URL/Embed. Paste the Padlet link there, and your discussion board is ready to go. I also invite other members of the community to chime in and share the discussion board tools they recommend!

If you'd like to see a discussion board tool within Rise, we'd love to hear more of your ideas! Would you mind taking a moment to share how you would use a discussion board tool with our product development team here? Thanks for being a part of the community!

Hi again Alyssa

The link to the sample Rise course is password protected. Can you help with that?

Thanks

Suzie

    Our organization would also want a Discussion board. I have asked about it this before. Hopefully, it is a feature that can be provided in Rise in the near future. In the meantime, I appreciate the Padlet info. Thank you!
