- [Instructor] In this video, we'll take a look … at the chat activity and how can extend the conversations … be on the walls of the classroom. … I like Moodle's description of the chat feature. … Chats enable participants to have text-based, … realtime synchronous discussions. … Chats can be a very useful activity to add to your course … if students will need to work on something … when they're not meeting face to face. … This is a safe way to have learners communicate because … the discussions can be monitored and all chats can be saved … and made available for others in the class to see. … Let's take a look at how to add a chat. … First I'm going to scroll down to one of my sections. … I'll go to the structure and function section. … Then I'll click on add an activity or resource. … From here, I'll select Chat. … Then, at the bottom, I'll click on Add. … This'll bring us to the page where we can begin … creating this chat. … I'm going to go in here and type in project discussions. …
