Is it possible to embed a forum/discussion in a web page (topic)
I would like to have a discussion embedded right in a web page so students can read a text blurb, answer a question, see other students comments and then go right to the next text blurb. Right now I can only link away from the text to a separate page for the discussion. Anyone know if this is possible? thanks!
