\label{Course_Discussion_Board}
To create a place explicitly intended as a discussion area, do the following: 

\begin{enumerate}

\item Select \textbf{DOCS} on the Remote Control or Main Menu. 
\item Make a short HTML page, with contents set to
something like \emph{General Discussion Board: Please post general
discussion here.} Then add that page as the first page of your course
sequence, or wherever else you would like the general discussion
page. LON-CAPA's built-in discussion features will do the rest.

NOTE: See section \ref{Docs_Creating_From_Template} for more information
on how to do that.

\item You might also want to include information on that page about how to
post to the discussion.

\item You can make as many of these discussion board areas as you like; for
example, you might want to make one for each chapter or section.

\end{enumerate}
