The Discussion Board in Brightspace is used to build peer-to-peer discussion assignments. Discussions may not be used in unfacilitated rolling-enrollment courses.
Text should be used to convey content, rather than images of text. Exceptions include logotypes (text that is part of a logo or brand name) and images that are essential to the information being conveyed (i.e. images of primary source documents). These exceptions must be accompanied by a text alternative for learners. Complex images, such as charts or graphs, can be used where necessary, but must include an image transcript / long description.
