We prioritized this based on the following:
Impact: High
There are times when students are reluctant and uncomfortable to let everyone in the class know they have doubts on a topic. Due to this, they refrain from asking questions publicly. The ability to post questions anonymously gives students the confidence that they will not be judged by their peers. However, instructors/admins will still be able to see the usernames of everyone who posts questions.
Effort: Medium
We would need to implement the option for a user to be anonymous while creating a new question or answering a question, which might take time and effort.
