Once you have chosen a book, you will need to enter a discussion group. Only a certain number of students will be allowed in each group, therefore you might want to join the group on Canvas before purchasing the book. To join a group, chose the people option on Canvas. Next, click on groups. Choose the group for the book you wish to read and join the group. Once you have been added to the group, click discussions. I will also post a Canvas video about how to join groups.
