This section of the Teen Thoughts on Democracy website is designed to allow for the exchange of ideas, opinions, creative responses, such as teen writings, artworks, videos, and more created as part of the project. Watch for future postings as the project gets rolling!

Anyone can take part in Open Forums and multiple discussions may be taking place at one time. You will need to establish a user name andpassword to log in to the Teen Thoughts on Democracy website before posting a topic or joining an ongoing discussion. Just click on ACCOUNT at the top right of this page to set up your account. When you visit the website in the future, log-in and join the conversation!

To set up a discussion among an invited group of participants, first establish a user name and log-in to the Teen Thoughts on Democracy website. Just click on ACCOUNT at the top right of this page to set up your account. Then complete and submit a Request to Create a Community Group to establish the group. Once approved, you are responsible for inviting your group's participants and monitoring its activities. You may post topics or questions to initiate a class or study group discussion, for example, or use it as a message board to make assignments or provide updates. (You will soon be able to also upload images or links to online media coverage of events addressing freedom of expression and provide a forum for discussion and exchange of opinions.)
