Community guidelines can help students understand their expected behavior while interacting in the Conversations tool within a course. 

Instructors can select the Settings option in the upper-right hand corner; a gear icon accompanies the text, which is next to the Create new topic button.

Under General Settings, you’ll see the Community Guidelines section, with an Edit Guidelines button below it. Select Edit Guidelines, add your new content in the text box, and select Save. 

Students will see the Community Guidelines when they initially enter Conversations, and will be unable to participate in the discussion until they select Agree.
