Clicking on a forum will take you to the threads page. A thread is a subsection of the forum, all talking about the topic created for the forum. Click on create thread to start one of your own.

Typing Threads

When creating a thread, give it a title and type your response.

 

Responding to Threads

After typing a thread, it is possible for yourself to edit it, delete it, quote it for later use, or respond to it.  Others can see your thread and respond to it as well. Some professors may require you to post a thread, respond to other threads from other students, and respond to threads in your own thread they had a response for.
