Communities

Communities are a new and powerful feature of AgLearn. The My Communities feature is a collaborative tool that enables you to conduct online forums through AgLearn. Anyone familiar with Internet bulletin boards is already familiar with AgLearn Communities; they are essentially the same thing, threaded discussion groups.

Communities in AgLearn can be associated with a specific Learning Item or Schedule Offering, or may be general in nature, open to anyone. While AgLearn administrators create a Community, you have a great deal of flexibility in its use once the Community, including the ability to moderate the discussion if designated.

Before getting too deeply into AgLearn Communities, some terminology must be introduced. The following fields and controls terminology appear in the My Communities pages:
