Ed Discussion is a quick and easy tool for class Q&A with superior functionality and usability.

There's seamless integration with Canvas through LTI, and Ed Discussion can also be used standalone. Instructors save considerable time compared to traditional email and forums.

*Less direct emails being sent to staff
*Fewer duplicate questions being asked
*Students often answer each other's questions
*Questions can reach and benefit the whole class
*Students like the modern user interface and excellent usability
*Higher quality questions and less back and forth with thread templates
*Easier to express ideas with equations, runnable code, annotations, and more

This workshop session will take 30 mins with additional time for Q&A.
