Is there a template for discussion posts?

How long should a discussion post be?


Answer

There is not a university-wide template for discussion posts. Professors may share suggested templates for their specific classes. These would likely be in the Student Center section of the Canvas course shell. Ultimately, use the discussion prompt and your best judgement to decide the appropriate length. One rule of thumb is to write one paragraph for each question of the prompt. Ultimately, be sure to answer each question of the prompt.
