[ARCHIVED] How do I access the discussion board?

[hwmartin1107]

How do I access the message board in Canvas for my class?  I do not see a message board icon or dropdown menu choice.  I completed the Canvas intro but I don't remember if this issue was covered.  Harris Martin

I am not sure if you are an instructor or a student, but here are a couple short video tutorials that should help:

Hi there,

I can't view the videos due to "privacy settings".  Please let me know.  I still don't know how to access the discussion boards and I'd dearly love to get this assignment done.  Thank you!

Hi there, @JOANMAYBANK ...

Doh!  You stumbled upon a reply where videos I had embedded in my response from 2020 no longer reside on the Vimeo video servers.  Instead, Instructure has moved their tutorial videos inside of their Studio video environment.  I *think* the videos I had linked to back in 2020 are now located here:

• Discussions Overview (Students)
• Discussions Overview (Instructors)

I hope these new links will be helpful to you!
