Faculty Support Services for Teaching with Technology

Discussion boards, also known as message boards, online forums, and electronic bulletin boards, allow users to hold asynchronous discussions that are grouped in a “threaded” format. That is, individual posts are organized in chronological order under grouped topic headings. At Cornell, CIT has established a customized instance of the phpBB Web forum software for the convenience of instructors and students.
