Is there a way to disable the option for students to be able to create discussions.  We want them to respond to the discussions and reply to each others, but we would rather not have them have the ability to begin a discussion for the class on their own.

Yes, you can do this from the Discussions page (click on the gear icon - upper right - and then uncheck the option to allow students to create discussion posts) OR from your course Settings (click on Settings, scroll down, click on the "more options" link, then uncheck the option to allow students to create discussions. You only have to make this change in one place and it will automatically update it in the other.
