Ed Discussion training sessions
Join us as we explore the capabilities of Ed Discussion.
Ed Discussion is an online discussion platform replacing Piazza as the University’s go-to Q&A tool in 2025 and is now available via Canvas, integrating seamlessly within the University’s LMS.
These sessions are tailored towards academic staff whereby the Ed Discussion team will demonstrate aspects of the tool that boosts student engagement and reduces administrative workload.
In February 2025 we are holding faculty-specific drop-in sessions. Although the focus may differ between faculties, please feel free to join a session that suits your schedule.
* Please ensure that you are logged in to Zoom with your University of Auckland Zoom account.
