Show names of respondents
Selecting this option will show the Canvas names for any users that have responded to the discussion. Deselecting this option will anonymize the poll and show a “Student #” in place of a name. If the same student responds multiple times they will have the same number throughout the discussion.
Highlight Teacher Comments
Teacher comments will be highlighted throughout the discussion so students can quickly find the teachers' posts amongst the student posts.

Threaded replies will nest responses within replies to create a threaded discussion. Students can respond to a specific post by clicking on the reply button for that comment.
Users must post before seeing replies
Users will need to post a reply to a discussion before seeing other students' responses in the discussion.
Allow likes
This allows students to like discussion posts as another way to provide feedback in a discussion.
