Campuswire is an engaging and modern online discussion tool that replaces discussion boards with a single platform that combines course discussion, announcements, and Q&A. In the free version, each class has a Class Feed as well as a Chatroom feature. Direct Messaging can be used to communicate with students, instructors, and classmates one-on-one.

To get started, visit the Campuswire website and sign-up for a free account. Use your PLU account to sign-up.

Important: At the end of each term, instructors should delete the Campuswire class that's associated with the course in order to comply with FERPA.

The Campuswire Help Center is available to the bottom-left of the page.
