How do I add a new Topic to an existing Forum?
instructors can add multiple Topics to a Forum.
Note: A Topic is the idea, question or concept you want the students to discuss.
Go to Forums.
On an existing Forum, click New Topic.
This displays the Topic Settings page.
Enter a title for the new Topic. Add a short description and a long description if needed.
The Topic title is required. The short description is displayed below the Topic title. The long description is displayed under a View Long Description button.
Click Save.
Note: All of the settings made in the Forum will automatically flow down to this Topic.

Note: By default, new Topics are displayed at the top of the list of Forum Topics. You may want to re-organize the topic listings (See How do I re-order forums or topics?)
