To create a place explicitly intended as a discussion area, the
easiest thing to do is 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 whereever else you would like the general discussion
+sequence, or wherever else you would like the general discussion
page. LON-CAPA's built-in discussion features will do the rest.
+This can be done by a course instructor through the \textbf{DOCs}
+screen; see section \ref{Docs_Creating_From_Template} for more information
+on how to do that.
+
You might also want to include information on that page about how to
post to the discussion.
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.
