What is the Forum activity?[править]
The Forum activity allows students and teachers to exchange ideas by posting comments as part of a 'thread'. Files such as images and media maybe included in forum posts. The teacher can choose to grade and/or rate forum posts and it is also possible to give students permission to rate each other's posts. {{#evt: service=youtube |id=https://youtu.be/ztjPPYjdxtI |description=Overview of the Forum activity |urlargs=modestbranding=1&rel=0 }}

How does it work?[править]
Student view[править]
Students access the forum by clicking the icon on the course page and depending on the forum type selecting, will typically be see a button to start a new discussion topic. They can sort discussions, subscribe to discussions from the toggle button, and favourite/bookmark discussions from the star icon on the left. This moves the discussion to the top of the list, under any discussions pinned by the teacher.
When starting a new discussion or replying If they click into a discussion, they have a link to reply and a 'Permalink'.
When replying, a basic text editor is available. Clicking the link Advanced displays the full editor and options such as uploading attachments.
Posts can be edited for a limited time,usually 30 minutes, dependent on the administrator's settings.
Teacher view[править]
Teachers additionally have three dots to the right of the Subscribe option, allowing them to pin, star or lock discussions.
When replying to a forum post, teachers also optionally can send a Private reply which is only seen by that particular student. Students cannot reply to this private reply.
