Replyig to an accepted solution
OK, even the Panda bot can't figure this out: I posted a question and got 2 answers, both of which I accepted as a solution.

It would be great to have a…

How do you encourage more meaningful student participation in Canvas discussions?
Hi everyone! As a grad student who's used Canvas discussions as a course requirement, I've noticed it's often hard to know where to contribute beyond replying to the first post. Threads get long and ideas get buried. I'm working on a capstone project exploring whether visualizing discussion structure in real time (thematic…
