A Topic is a discussion prompt for your students! Just write a prompt and include anything you would like your students to review prior to responding, such as videos and links. Topic Media is a good way to add reference material links, an image, or GIF to your topic.

After creating your Topic, choose how learners will access it. Share your Topic by using one of the share buttons or copy and paste the unique Join Code with your learners in a different platform, such as email.
